The COVID-19 pandemic made personal computers more important than ever, and sales exploded two years<\/a> in a row<\/a>. But the good times for PC and chipmakers now seem to be fading fast. Last quarter\u2019s slump in Chromebook sales<\/a> has made way for an even bigger decline that\u2019s hitting Windows manufacturers as well<\/a>, and today, chipmaker Intel has revealed a 25 percent decline in consumer chip sales. It says that a \u201cnear-term cyclical slowdown\u201d is shrinking the total market for PCs by approximately 10 percent this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome of our largest customers are reducing inventory levels at a rate not seen in the last decade,\u201d Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger said on today\u2019s earnings call.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, Gartner reported that the global PC market had already declined 12.6 percent<\/a> compared to last year. And today, Apple reported<\/a> a roughly 10 percent decline in its Mac sales as well, though Tim Cook suggested<\/a> that it may have simply be selling out of its Mac inventory.<\/p>\n
