Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) says that its sales to PC makers in Taiwan are running up and should rise about 10% this year. Manufacturers in Taiwan make about 60% of PCs sold around the world by companies including Dell (NASDAQ: DELL), HP (NYSE: HPQ), and Lenovo.
According to Reuters, Redmond says it has "started to see a drop in exports to the United States amid worries of a slowing U.S. economy, but sales to countries such as China, Africa and Eastern Europe remained robust." That would tend to confirm what HP said when it announced earnings.
