Market share of leading PC vendors

Market share of leading PC vendors

Because the personal computer (PC) is an iconic high tech product the market share of leading PC vendors is watched closely. Market discussion of these devices may include netbooks but do not include media tablets which was dominated by Apple products.[1]

Key developments in recent years have been the battle for the top spot between Dell and HP, the rise of Acer, and the dwindling share of PCs sold by companies outside of the top five.
