Sources from notebook makers recently expressed their concern that global notebook shipments in the second half of 2010, the traditional peak season for the PC market in Europe and North America, may not see strong growth from the first half as in previous years.

In 2009, 40% of the global notebook shipments were in the first half and 60% in the second, but the shipments proportion for the first and the second halves of 2010 may reach 50% and 50% due to strong notebook demand in China.
