Report DescriptionBishop and Associates has just released a new ten-chapter research report covering Computer Equipment - Markets & Connector Use. This report provides a detailed view of computer system hardware and connector content. Hardware is defined as: palmtops, notebooks, desktop PCs, motherboards, workstations, servers, (PC servers, proprietary/RISC servers) mainframes and super computers. Details are also provided by region of the world (North America, Europe, Japan, China, Asia Pacific, ROW). Computer usage and connector content became increasingly volatile during the recent precedent-shattering business climate. The sheer dynamics of this industry, with its worst downturn ever, the HPQ merger, outsourcing, and a massive shift in manufacturing operations, all added to this uncertainty. Multiple industry forces have been responding to these pressures: price erosion, new equipment configurations, desktop replacement, SATA, WiFi, PC server-blades, accelerated outsourcing, and changes in connector content and supply chain. Component manufacturers with a stake in the computer market must react quickly to these dynamics. One effect is an increased migration of facilitation, engineering and manufacturing to Asia. Affected by these changes are facilities in North America including Mexico, Europe, Japan and even Taiwan and South Korea. A typical setup is to have product engineering and product management in Japan, Taiwan, or Singapore, with manufacturing resources in China - either direct, joint venture or subcontract. Mainland China has quickly emerged as the destination of choice for high volume assembly, with some predicting over 50% of world electronics manufacturing there by 2010. Intel, Microsoft and most computer hardware OEMs are leveraging low cost manufacturing in the region - directly and via industry-standards and reference designs.
