April Retail PC sales
According to PC Data:
YOY units up 20.6 %
YOY revs down 2%
Wintel ASP $928, down from $987 in March
Top five PC's CPQ and HWP
$699 CPQ Presario w AMD top seller
Three of top five AMD, two Celeron
From article,
The AMD-Celeron battle also means that fancier PIII computers are not having much impact on blunting long-term PC pricing trends"
Looks like revenues won't come close to matching unit growth this year.
