Demand for Notebook Computers to Continue Surging in China Wonder what this is all about???? ======================== April 20, 1999 (BEIJING) -- Sales of notebook computers in China are expected to expand substantially in the coming years, according to a recent report. Statistics from the Beijing Customs Office indicated that imports of notebook computers in Beijing rose dramatically to 30,070 units in 1998, and were valued at US$52 million. The trend continued in January, when 2,228 notebook computers worth US$9.1 million were imported. At the same time, the rising number of imports is accompanied by declining prices, with the average per-unit price of US$1,725 in 1998 dropping from US$2,579 in 1997. The notebook computers are mainly imported from Japan, Taiwan and the United States. (Xinhua News Agency)
