After years of price cuts, notebook companies - Taiwanese contract manufacturers Quanta, Compal and Wistron - decided they could not stand it any longer and are asking customers to order, including HP, Dell and Acer share the burden. For contract computer manufacturers, this could end many years of slippery profits but it could also lead to a price. Because this is a time when shoppers in Europe and the United States turn to a search mode of bargaining rather than willing to pay more for a notebook. Instead of buying an affordable or genuine notebook, more and more people opt for sub-notebook computers. This product is expected to attract new customers rather than just offering cheap products as a solution for more expensive models.
