The economic crisis affects the computer world

Even though no computer maker has yet announced catastrophic sales figure following the economic crisis, obviously next quarter things will not be rosey. To convince oneself, it is enough to read the titles of news items inDigitimes. The specialist subcontractors are the first to suffer. Thus, Quanta and Compal specialized in the manufacture of computers for large accounts (such as Apple) foresee that the orders of products will drop. The same applies to manufacturers of parts such as AUO Optonics which manufactures LCD screens, and of course the manufacturers of RAM who see the arrival of this crisis as a major catastrophe especially since they have suffered already enormously over the last 2 years.
Of course, one wonders what will happen to the Apple sales, currently enjoying strong growth in a contracting market. Either they will at least manage to maintain their level of sales thanks to the renewed love affair of the public for the apple; or on the contrary, the public, being much less captive than us, will put in the fore the price posted on the label, and in this case, Apple will suffer a lot, because even though the Mac is worth its price, it remains much more expensive than many PCs.
