Samsung sells more notebooks than Apple

[puntoMX]

There are some of us that always ask what would be the best brand on buying a notebook. It seems that Lenovo is coming back with an aggressively priced Essentials line as they were driven away from the five top notebook companies. Personally I like their new cheaper line although you won't find any i5 to i7 in it, but does have some powerful AMD CPUs in its list.

Samsung however, is doing it amazingly well and compared with last year, there part in total sold notebooks went up 14.6% over the first quarter of 2010. With this, Apple and Sony are left behind by Samsung, putting Samsung at number seven of the world's notebook assemblers.

Although notebook sales went worldwide down by 5.4% in the first quarter of 2010, Fujitsu´s sold 17.4% more notebooks the first quarter of 2010, and thus, making it the fastest growing brand at the moment, but still can be found at number ten of the world's notebook assemblers.

Total sales of mobile computers however, went up 42.2% compared to last year, which is a big growth.
