PC market faces worst sales decline in history
A new report says PC sales have slipped, marking the worst annual decline in the PC industry’s history.
Didn't we just saw a arricle/report last year saying that PC sales are going strong?
In other, unrelated news: NVIDIA has just announced the new "must have" GPU which will be nearly mandatory to play upcoming titles. It doesn't do a lot more than current GPU offerings, but it does support a tiny increment in DirectX which will never be utilized and costs an affordable R20,000. NVIDIA expects sales to be "positive" during the product's 3 month lifespan.
This is actually good news....
Shows more and more people are smart enough to build PCs instead of buying :p
In some more other news: Large corporates have reported this year that they are not making enough money, and are crying like babies because they're not getting what they deserve. More reports to follow.
Dem ipads are eating pc sales the only reason to own a pc is for gaming and that is a tiny market.
Doesn't help that gaming PC's are home built to suit the gamer so those stats aren't even here. I wouldn't say that it's a tiny market though.Quote:

Well that, or the fact that when a new component comes out it's nothing strange when it costs twice the price of a next-gen console.Quote:
