The PC is dead! Long live the PC! Yes, it’s that time of the year again when analyst firm IDC announces that PC shipments have yet again taken a downturn, with some potentially thinking the end is nigh for the personal computer as we know it. But there’s a surprise: Macs are on the up.
IDC’s figures for the second quarter of 2023 show the likes of HP, Lenovo and Dell with reduced shipments, with the latter two seeing a double digit decline. And across the board, other Windows computer makers saw a reduction in shipments over last year. But Apple bucked the trend, with IDC seeing a 10.3% growth for Q2 2023 versus 2022.
