Japan's PC Sales Decline From Year Ago in Week Ended Feb. 17

Tokyo, March 4 (Bloomberg) -- Japan's personal computer sales at large electronics stores fell in the week ended Feb. 17 from the year-ago period, technology weekly Nikkei Market Access said.

Sales fell 0.4 percent by volume and 4.1 percent by value, extending declines that began in May last year, according to figures supplied to Nikkei by private research company Gfk Japan.

Japanese companies and consumers are scaling back spending on electronics during the country's third recession in a decade. Toshiba Corp., which makes Dynabook notebook computers, said last month it expects domestic computer shipments of 950,000 units in the fiscal year ending March 31, down from the company's earlier 1.1 million target. NEC Corp., Japan's biggest PC maker, said its shipments in the same period will fall by as much as a fifth from the 3.48 million computers it shipped a year earlier.
