‘Windows 8 Stabs The PC Market In The Gut’ – ‘ReadWrite’
The latest post on ‘ReadWrite’ is titled “Windows 8 Stabs The PC Market In The Gut”.
Mark Hachman says, “The PC market tanked in the first quarter, IDC reported. Shipments fell by a stunning 14% from a year earlier, almost twice what IDC had predicted and the worst performance since the firm began tracking the market in 1994. Can we all agree now that Windows 8 has wounded an already dying PC market?
Gartner also chimed in, too: worldwide PC shipments totaled 79.2 million units in the first quarter of 2013, a 11.2 percent decline from the first quarter of 2012. Global PC shipments went below 80 million units for the first time since the second quarter of 2009, the firm said”.
