Netbooks Yes or Netbooks No?
A new report predicts that ultramobile devices will reach 200 million in unit sales by 2013 and will match the market for notebook PCs.
ABI Research said products such as netbooks and mobile Internet devices, or MIDs, will gross $27 billion by then, with MID units growing in popularity to surpass its rival.
All this from ZDNet.
On the other hand, in a wide-ranging interview, Dell CEO Michael Dell (in photo) voiced suspicion that small-screened netbooks will shake up the computer industry or become the primary computer in developed parts of the world.
“I think it’s a second machine in developed countries and a first machine in newly developed countries,” he said, according to a report in CNET.
So is it yes for netbooks or no for netbooks?
Time will tell …
