Will Netbook Sales Growth Slow to 0% in 2010? I Don't Think So

According to DisplaySearch.com, every personal computer segment except one had a dramatically down growth year in 2009. The practically forgotten UMPC was down the most at -23% with portable, desktop, and notebook PCs all showing negative growth in the low teens. The lone growth segment was, of course the netbook (or Mini-Note as DisplaySearch calls it) with a gigantic 72% year-over-year growth.

Mini-Note (Netbook) Shipments Grow 103% Y/Y in 2009; Revenues Up 72%

I don’t think anyone is surprised by this information.
