Intel’s Barrett sees no slowdown in world PC market
By
Intel Corp, the world’s biggest microchip producer, expects no slowdown in global demand for personal computers despite economic problems in the United States and in other countries, Intel Chairman Craig Barrett said on Wednesday.
He also told reporters in Lisbon, where he was to sign a draft deal with the Portuguese government to make 500,000 cheap portable computers for schools, that the company was upbeat on demand prospects for low-cost computers and broadband wireless systems. “We gave a relatively upbeat business forecast, saying that despite the economic problems in the United States our business is so international that we didn’t see any slowdown in the PC market,” he said.
