Dell was the only company in the top 5 to see a decrease in shipments. Acer’s rapid movement up the table was not a surprise to the industry. The company has been targeting Dell’s world-wide share through its success in the netbook and low-end notebook categories, which have been of the few areas of growth in an otherwise tepid industry.

Lenovo Group, the number four manufacturer behind Dell and formed through a merger of IBM’s computer division and Chinese PC company Legend Computing, also saw gains in the quarter. Lenovo saw shipments grow 18% due to its strength in China and the ASEAN countries.
