Baltic States Personal Computing 2005-2009 Forecast and 2004 Vendor Shares

This IDC study, Baltic States Personal Computing 2005-2009 Forecast and 2004 Vendor Shares, provides detailed analysis, conclusions, and forecasts regarding the dynamics of this region's evolving markets for personal computers. The information in this study is intended to provide an understanding of the changes and challenges facing the PC industry in these emerging markets. Our 2004 figures and analysis are based on information gathered from interviews with the leading IT companies (vendors, distributors, assemblers, system integrators, value-added resellers, and dealers) in the markets.

"Estonia is the most advanced of the Baltic markets in terms of PC penetration and IT development. There is a massive installed base across all form factors that will enable vendors to capitalize on demand for upgrades and replacement in the future. At the same time, Lithuania has become the biggest PC market in the region, based on the size of its economy, population, and GDP, and its limited IT infrastructure. Latvia is the smallest PC market but holds potential for steady growth as a result of its GDP and FDI expansion, along with the increasing share of companies that are capitalizing on the Russian export routes to Western Europe that cross the country." - Simeon Hinov, Research Analyst, IDC CEMA
