Nach einer langen Zeit der Einbußen ist der PC-Markt laut IDC in der Region EMEA im 3. Quartal 2002 wieder leicht gewachsen.

Um 3,3 Prozent ist der PC-Absatz in der Region EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) im 3. Quartal gestiegen. Das berichtet das Marktforschungsunternehmen International Data Corporation (IDC) anhand vorläufiger Zahlen für diesen Zeitraum. Im 3. Quartal 2001 hatte der Markt für Computer noch ein Minus von 9,4 Prozent zu verkraften. Nach fünf Quartalen des Rückgangs verzeichnete die PC-Branche in Westeuropa von Juli bis einschließlich September 2002 ein leichtes, einstelliges Wachstum. Allerdings blieben die Marktbedingungen weiterhin schwierig. Für die PC-Branche in Deutschland gebe es zwar Anzeichen einer moderaten Verbesserung, ein Ende der schwierigen Wirtschaftlage sei dort aber noch nicht in Sicht.
