Tablets Sales are Rising While Computers Get Left Behind

By dave July 15th, 2011

There was a time when it would have been hard to imagine any piece of equipment that could outdo the personal computer. Laptops and desktop computers have become a major part of many peoples’ lives.

But now it seems the tide may be turning – that is, if the latest blog posts and news articles are true. Apparently the sales of tablets are getting better and better, putting a dent in the growth of the PC market. Computer sales in the United States were forecast to grow by approximately 6.7% in the last three month sales period. In reality the growth was just 2.3%. Some of this slow movement will undoubtedly be due to the economic situation, but this appears to be only half the story.

The most eye catching and headline making tablet of all is of course the iPad. Certainly, Apple’s sales of their much trumpeted gadget have done exceptionally well in its first year. When you consider its success amidst a challenging economic market, you can see that perhaps it is having a marked effect on the sale of PCs.

Only time will tell whether this trend will continue. One would suspect it will end somewhere, since a tablet cannot do everything that a personal computer can. But similarly a tablet has advantages that even a laptop does not, never mind a desktop. So it can be expected that tablets will continue to garner good sales in the months to come.

Our weekend of bb guns and BBQ came quickly Lebron VIII which was nice as I was overly anxious to shoot again. When I arrived my neighbor immediately showed me his back yard and I was Nike Zoom Hyperfuse flabbergasted at just how much detail he had put into making a makeshift shooting range. There where of course four shooting posts complete with targets on them, a launcher for clay pigeons, and a row of cans lined up for us to shoot at. Seeing all of this harkened me back to the days when I had first started collecting as a young Kobe VI teenager.My neighbor and I spent what felt like an hour, but was actually six hours shooting everything we could get our hands on. The action stopped only because we both ran out of bbs and pellets. I came with two Kevin Durant Shoes handguns and one air rifle and all three guns got a well deserved work out. Finding the time to spend a few hours anywhere but my own home is difficult but luckily my wife understands how important something like this Air Force One to me and so we now have Air Max 90 a schedule set up that allows me to partake in my hobby once more, and on a regular basis too!
