From CNNFn this morning:

cnnfn.com

The infotech research firm, based in Framingham, Mass., expects first quarter unit volume in the global PC market to jump 14.1 percent over last year, led by U.S. sales.
For the full year, IDC expects PC volume to climb 14.3 percent to 103.2 million units.

Bruce Stephen, IDC Group's vice president of worldwide PC research, said marketplace competition and the growing consumer appetite for low-priced PCs has computer makers scrambling to meet the needs of the dollar-conscious shopper.

The value of PC shipments this year will grow a modest 4.8 percent to $178.4 billion, according to IDC.
"This low-growth scenario illustrates the continued downward migration of consumer and commercial desktop, as well as portable PC, prices," Stephen said. "It also explains why PC vendors are moving at a frenetic pace to diversify their business models and revenue sources."
