UK PC market figures show that Toshiba enjoyed the best end to 2007 relative to their rivals. The Japanese outfit saw their market share increase from 6 to 9 per cent, ending the year as the fifth largest PC vendor. HP enjoyed the second biggest growth in the fourth quarter of 2007, increasing its market share by 2 points to 22 per cent, though their closest rivals Dell struggled to add to the growth enjoyed in previous quarters as their market share remained at 18 per cent.
The UK PC market was up 7.6 per cent on the fourth quarter of 2006, largely fuelled by notebook sales. Suggestions that notebooks are edging out desktops were given credence as desktop sales fell 13 per cent whilst notebook sales were up by nearly a third.
