Australian figures to be released later this week for PC sales are expected to mimic worldwide trends, according to research company Gartner.
The Australian PC market is picking up, with an analyst report showing a year-on-year growth of 14 percent for the second quarter of 2002.
Despite Australia posting an increase of more than 10 percent in PC sales last quarter, industry analysts predict escalating tensions between the USA, North Korea and Iraq will have an unsettling influence on buying patterns in the second half of this year.
Personal computer shipments in Australia in the fourth quarter of 2000 declined by 18 percent, which according to one report will lead to inevitable price slashing by vendors in the short term.
Despite research that found Vista uptake among businesses is slowing, Michael Dell has predicted that most companies will migrate to the OS within two years.
A third of today's top 10 manufacturers could exit the PC business by 2007, according to a new report.
After adding it back as an option for small businesses, Dell offers the older OS on consumer machines in response to demand in the US.
Microsoft has decided to support one of two competing formats for popular DVD recording technology.
