Legend takes PC sales lead; Chinese firm rides strong domestic growth
Article Abstract:
This article discusses how a strong domestic market and lower prices enabled Legend Holdings Ltd. to become, in the third quarter, the biggest seller of PCs in the Asian-Pacific region, except for Japan. Legend has 8.5% market share in the period, versus 6% the last quarter, and 5.7% for the same period last year. At the same time, a survey of Internet use in new Zealand and Singapore shows that these countries have the highest rates of Internet penetration in the region outside of Japan. Thirty-two percent of each nation's population now uses the Internet.
