Eee PCs are not as hot nowadays, and Asus thinks it's as a result of the Apple iPad.
Asus,
Office Home And Business, the pioneers from the netbook,
Microsoft Office 2010 Pro, are dialing again shipments due to weakening desire.
Although the third quarter is generally a higher point for that company,
Office Professional 2010 Key, Asus has adjusted its netbook shipment right down to one.four million units, a fall when compared to 1.5 million and one.six million through the earlier quarters.
Asus CEO Jerry Shen blames the reduced desire around the Apple iPad,
Windows 7 Pro Product Key, which he thinks is cannibalizing the income of netbooks.
We imagine that one more doable explanation is the fact that the netbook craze might be dying down a bit because of seriously discounted notebooks along with the stagnation of netbook hardware.
On the vibrant aspect, Asus will likely be viewing gains in the two its laptop computer and motherboard shipments for the 3rd quarter.
