NEW YORK -- Worldwide personal computer shipments picked up their pace in the fourth-quarter to grow 15 percent versus the fourth-quarter a year-ago, salvaging a year that began with an inventory glut and struggled with economic turmoil in many emerging markets, market researchers said.
By contrast, worldwide PC market shipments rose 12 percent for the 1998 year as a whole compared to 1997, according to survey data to be released on Friday by market researcher firm International Data Corp. (IDC) of Framingham, Mass.
