Shrinking PC Market

I think this is less a matter of the "post PC world" as it is a matter of PC's having razor slim profit margins due to low barriers to entry and heavy competition. HP knows that and can probably put their capital to more profitable use. Apple makes great products (I have an iphone, an ipod, will probably be buying an ipad next). Still, when it comes to computers, I like to get a bit more bang for my buck than apple is willing to offer.

I don't care about hip or not I talking about huge market of pc's By the way you have any examples?

Because businesses don't buy computers?

Personal computers aren't a commodity?

Shrinking PC market, oversupply of older models, Apple eating vast majority of profits. If you want them to build better computers, buy more of their expensive ranges to give them a room to operate. Otherwise expect penny-pinching.

There are very small companies building PCs nowadays, see Framework, Pine, Purism, etc. So a much larger company can do it too without even thinking if they should. Also they are more B2B oriented, and the consumer part was probably a side effect. Further they were probably using headless PCs in their industrial systems too. It's not at all strange.

This can't be true. /sWho would have thought that after years of sabotaging the PC market, a fatal blow, will not be fatal.Buy a laptop. It's very good.

Because they're expensive and the best selling laptops are half the price?

Of these laptops 95% are not going to consumers but to enterprise users so who cares what consumers think?

They don't see a big enough market. They feel they can make better profits from regular laptops or phones.
