Computer sales hit peak

Computer sales peaked from July to September this year, mostly driven by the increased demand for laptops.
Reports released by analyst firms IDC and Gartner also showed that Hewlett Packard had surged ahead in PC shipments leaving its immediate rival Dell far behind.
There was a 15.5 per cent increase in global PC shipments in the third quarter. In all, 66.9 million PCs were shipped from July to September this year, while only 57.9 million were sold during the same period last year.
HP has further cemented its number one position by increasing its share in the world PC market to 19.6 per cent, while Dell's share declined and touched 15.2 per cent.
Gartner predicted that the overall growth in global PC shipments this year would be around 12.3 per cent.
