I wonder how the trolls will spin this.... http://news.cnet.com/8301-13924_3-57368610-64/apple-ipad-breaks-hps-h... "In the fourth quarter, Apple became the leading worldwide client PC vendor by shipping more than 15 million iPads and 5 million Macs, representing 17 percent of the total 120 million client PCs shipped globally in the fourth quarter, according to Canalys. "
"the real shocker may be the emergence of Amazon as a personal computing giant. "In five years, maybe less, a company like Amazon may be a bigger PC company than some of the top fives today. It's a fundamental shift so those who are in denial are in trouble."
And that's happening already. Amazon may have shipped more than 5 million Kindle Fire tablets in the fourth quarter. Combine the Fire with other Kindle devices and you have numbers that rival the top PC makers."
