PC outlook improves, although shipments are still expected to fall 3.7% in 2014, says IDC

Worldwide PC shipments are expected to fall 3.7% in 2014, an improvement from the previous forecast of 6%, according to IDC. PC shipments in emerging regions remain constrained by ongoing competition from alternative devices and a number of economic/political challenges. However, commercial demand and even a rekindling of consumer interest in mature markets helped to boost results for the first half of 2014 as well as the outlook for the rest of the year.
