As they do this, we will see where dedicated devices (such as tablets), or hybrid devices (detachable or convertible devices), fit in the overall portfolio of devices.”
Worldwide shipments of PCs are forecasted to come in at a total of 276.7 million units this year, sinking another 6.6 percent compared to 2013.

Modern Windows can also expect a good year, with an estimated increase in sales of 16 percent.]]>
