Apple's iMac spurs demand for all-in-one PCs

Taiwan-based Digitimes is reporting that demand for all-in-one computers like the iMac has been climbing lately. That's a little odd in this current economy, since all-in-one devices tend to be more expensive than traditional "box and monitor" PCs. <br /><P></P><br /><P>Of all of the suppliers of all-in-one personal computers, Apple's iMac is leading the pack with about 40% of sales for 2010. Updated iMacs, which currently feature Intel's powerful Core i3, i5, and i7 CPUs, were responsible for a huge year-over-year increase in sales of desktop Macs in 2009, and the addition of faster RAM and processors in 2010 has kept demand for the product quite high.</P><br /><P>It's expected that industry-wide, about 10 million all-in-one PCs will be sold in 2010, climbing to between 12 and 14 million in 2011. Purchases of all-in-ones are particularly popular in the enterprise market, a space where Apple has traditionally lagged but is now seeing increased attention.</P><br /><P>Don't expect Apple to follow the lead of competitor HP, which outfits its all-in-one PCs with touch screens. Apple CEO Steve Jobs expressed his distaste for touch screens on desktop computers during the "Back to the Mac" event on October 20, 2010, noting that multi-touch gestures are much easier through existing user interface devices such as the Magic Mouse and Magic Trackpad.</P>
