Dell's consumer laptop sales dip 20 percent

All the trouble Dell has been having with its new XPS M1330 and Inspiron laptops is taking a heavy toll on the PC maker. The company’s consumer laptop sales fell by 20 percent in Q2 2007 to just 887,000 laptops as compared to 1.1 million in Q2 2006. On the contrary, HP continues to enjoy booming sales and outsold Dell 3-1 in Q2 by selling 2.4 million laptops.

The good news for Apple fans is that MacBook and MacBook Pro sales totaled 1.1 million which means Dell was outsold by Apple too. Yeah, we’re in shock too. How fortunes change! Not long ago, Dell was the top dog. Now, it’s scrounging for market share.
