The operating system is set to arrive on July 29
It is probably the last thing that Microsoft wants to see so close to the release of Windows 10, but skepticism is what one usually gets whenever the subject of the upcoming OS’s impact on device sales is broached. So much so that even Intel — a company for long tied at the hip with Microsoft — has clearly said it sees little hope of Windows 10 reviving PC sales in a big way. Now it’s the turn of a bunch of notebook panel makers Taiwanese site Digitimes talked to.
According to the site, these panel makers are currently grappling with weak panel pricing owing to high reserves and low demand. They are trying to combat this “though utilization and production adjustments” and not waiting for Windows 10’s arrival, which they feel won’t do much to boost notebook sales in any case — at least in the short term. Interestingly, the site notes that this wasn’t always the case as these companies were initially hopeful of a Windows 10-led sales revival.
