Indian PC market shrunk by over 15 percent, Acer the only brand that grew

In India, the regular PC market seems to face problems. They sent out 3.2 million computers in the second part of this year. This was a little more than before, but compared to the same time last year, it went down by a lot (15.3% less). This information comes from a group called International Data Corporation (IDC) Worldwide Quarterly Personal Computing Device Tracker. 

In this quarter, all types of computer products didn't sell as well as they did the year before. Computers such as notebooks sold 18.5% less, and the desktops sold 7.0% less compared to last year. Both regular people and businesses didn't buy as many computers, with a 17.0% drop for regular people and 13.8% for businesses.

India’s PC market’s

The PCs sold for schools and the government did better, but businesses had a hard time. Some states like Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, and Tamil Nadu helped schools get more computers, and that made the school computer market grow by 43.7%. The government also increased the PC market by 8.2%, because they needed them for court orders. 

The high-end laptops, priced over ₹80,000, faced a downfall by 30.7%. But they did better in the later part of the year, going up by 39.0% compared to the previous three months. 

However, the top 5 brands in India are HP Inc, Lenovo, Dell Technologies, Asus, and Acer Group. All of these companies have faced a downfall in their market share in 2Q23 compared to last year’s (2Q22) position, except Acer Group, according to IDC. Acer Group has seen a positive growth in its market share this year.

What if a botched Google search card says you are a serial killer

Many of us have come to heavily rely on Google Search and often don’t question the veracity of information Google cherry-picks from the vast data available on the world wide web for its search cards. This incident, which is one part funny and two parts scary, makes it clear that Google’s Knowlege Graph may not be as sacrosanct as you may have believed.  Hristo Georgiev was informed by a former colleague that a Google search of his name returned a Google Knowlege Graph that depicted his photo and linked it to a Bulgarian rapist and serial killer of the same name, also known as ‘The Sadist’, who murdered five people back in the 1970s and was later executed by shooting.  The graph linked the info to a Wikipedia article, which incidentally had no link to any of Georgiev’s profile or his image.
