Global PC Sales Continue Decline, Cannot Compete with Mobile

Worldwide sales of personal computers are projected to slump for a fourth consecutive year, according to a new report from the International Data Corporation. The report estimates that PC shipments will decline by 6.2 percent this year. While the upcoming Windows 10 release may encourage some computer users to upgrade their PCs, any jump is expected to be temporary, notes Digital Trends, “as consumers will continue to prioritize mobile devices — namely phones, tablets, and smartwatches like the Apple Watch — over standard desktops or laptops brandishing the Windows logo.”
