I read from the Technology section of a local newspaper that in Japan the presence of PC’s has diminish because of the rise of Nintendo’s Wii, Sony’s Playstation 3 and PSP 2 and others new gadgets such as smartphones that act like pocket-sized computers, digital video recorders with terabytes of memory, consumers has put PC’s last in their shopping list.

Japan’s PC market is already shrinking, leading analysts to wonder whether Japan will become the first major market to see a decline in personal computer use some 25 years after it revolutionized household electronics - and whether this could be the picture of things to come in other countries.
