So he compares PC shipments to IOS tablet and Phone plus maybe Mac shipments and says Apple sells more computers? Kind of like comparing apples and oranges: totally bananas.
- dottrap 11y agoIt's just another way to get another perspective on what the large numbers mean. It's also well understood that phones and tablets are eating into PC demand. So it's not that bananas. One further breakdown I would like to see is PC sales broken down between servers, commercial desktop office, and home users. I would suspect the need for server farms are propping up PC sales while home consumer demand is at an all-time low. I don't have a good guess how commercial desktop is trending.
- dragonbonheur 11y agowhat I would like to see is PC sales vs Software Sales. I also remember when Microsoft defined the PC98 "standard". It's time for someone to define the PC2015 standard. Maybe the new PC should be the Raspberry Pi.
