The Indian PC market has been a stagnant one, off late and it seems things are slowing down more, according to a report by Gartner. There were some 2.5 million desktops and notebooks that were sold in the fourth quarter of this year, according to the report. This is, of course, a larger number, but the market has shrunk by some 6.5 percent, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2010. The primary reason for this slowdown appears to be the Thailand floods, which forced large hard drive manufacturers to shut down factories. This led to price rises of hard drives around the world and this in turn, affected the PC market.
