Hanoi Times – The market research company IDC announced that Vietnam’s client PC market grew 41 percent to 1.4 million computers in 2007.


Notebooks were o­ne of the hottest segments, posting a 219 percent growth.


For the full year, Hewlett-Packard remained the leader, followed by Acer, both of which recorded strong growths thanks to channel programs, promotional bundles, and loan support.


In third place, Lenovo showed a much stronger year-on-year unit growth rate of 174 percent compared to HP’s 155 percent and Acer’s 154 percent.


The company also expects its growth to rise by 30 percent this year, but says that currency appreciation and inflation may cut into that.
