The cost of a notebook computer should drop dramatically in China during the first half of the year because Intel has introduced a new processor (处理器) chip (芯片)and production capacity at domestic plants has grown enormously.
"The price of personal computers usually drops after a new generation of chips is launched," said Du Wenluan, a computer expert.
Du expects the price of a mid-level, family-use laptop to drop from 12 000 Yuan to below 10 000 Yuan and, that the decline will continue until the middle of the year.
On January 19, Intel China started a second generation of laptop (笔记本电脑) central-processing-unit chips in China
Acer Inc; which surpassed Fujistu-Siemens to become the world''s fourth-biggest personal computer seller in the fourth quarter, said it will equip its products with new CPUs to replace old models starting in the middle of this year
Meanwhile, overseas PC makers such as Toshiba have increased production capacity in their Chinese plants.
Laptop sales throughout China totaled 2.37 million units last year, representing a 37.2 percent increase from the previous year.
