Heartbeat detected in US PC market, World less healthy
US PC shipments grew for the first time for a year in Q1, 2002, according to Gartner Dataquest's number crunchers. But worldwide, PC sales were flat. Worldwide PC shipment were 32.7m units in Q1, with the US accounting for 11.1m units. This was 2.3 per cent up on Q1, last year, which everyone at the time thought was a bad quarter. So the US growth rate this year is not exactly sparkling. "Sluggish," Gartner calls it.
