Despite earlier, more dire predictions, PC sales are now estimated to fall off just two per cent from 2008 totals, according to a report released on Wednesday.
The latest forecast issued from market research firm Gartner says PC shipments should reach 285 million units by the end of 2009. That’s just slightly off last year’s shipments of 291 million. The forecast is markedly improved over June’s estimates from Gartner, which forecast a six per cent decline for the year.
