Abstract
Taiwanese manufacturers have completely dominated the global desktop motherboard and PC CEM space. In 2007, Taiwanese motherboard makers shipped 98.5% of the worldwide desktop motherboard shipments. However, the industry is faced with a slow growth rate owing to the trend of replacing desktop PCs with notebooks and aggressive pricing by notebook PC makers.
Notebook PCs will remain the growth engine for PC CEMs. Notebook PC shipments by Taiwanese makers are likely to grow at a CAGR of 18.7% during 2007- 2012.
This report delves into the desktop motherboard shipments and desktop and notebook PC shipments by Taiwanese manufacturers. It explores the emerging trends in the PC and motherboard industry. The report also explores the competitive landscape in the PC and motherboard industry, the production locations being chosen by Taiwanese firms, and the Chinese share of the market.
