The PC market has been deeply impacted by the recession over the last year. Normally, the back-to-school season marks an uptick in adoption of new models.

  • How will suppliers, like Intel, AMD, and Microsoft, influence sales?
  • What is the impact of the netbook in the market?
  • Who is poised to win the back-to-school battle from the channel perspective?
