Gartner and IDC companies reported about the sums of world computer market for the first quarter this year, and in both cases actual results proved to be worse than forecasts. On gartner version, the sales volumes of computers in the world decreased in comparison with the first quarter last year by 1,1%. On IDC version, a decrease reached 3,2%. Increase on the Asian markets in comparison with last year significantly was slowed down, and the markets for developing countries slowly mastered new computers, since buyers looked at tablets, which do not enter in this statistics.
Acer company suffered from similar tendencies most of all, since it only begins to leave for the market for tablets, but the favorites of its production (Netbook) program no longer enjoy popularity. Sales Of acer in the quantitative expression fell in comparison with the first quarter last year by 12,2% (Gartner) or 15,8% (IDC), moreover in the latter case this led to the displacement Of acer in the third place in the rating of quite important computers producers . Company also did not support corporate buyers, as this occurred in the case of Dell and HP. The recent resignation of Acer President and then the accepted solution to study the restructuring of business appear completely justified.

In the year it increased the computers sales volumes by 16,6% (Gartner) or 16,3% (IDC).
