从去年下半年起,各大计算机公司似乎一直遭受着经济低迷的折磨,在众厂商纷打降价牌、竞相收缩摊子的大潮下,IT业的发展状况不容乐观。来自日本电子工业振兴协会的调查说,日本国内五大计算机厂商1997年度的总销售额(1997年4月～1998年3月)合计仅比上年度增长1％。然而,东南亚金融危机并下是导致IT厂商走向颓势的根本性原因,佳能就是一个良好的注脚:尽管它受到降价之苦和东南亚金融风暴的干扰,但销售额增幅仍达到7.9％。受经济规律的影响,金融危机去了还会再来,那么,面对未来种种不可预料的因素,我们该做何种准备呢?也许,在适应产品需求变化的同时,IT厂商还应该尽快完成自我角色的转换,为将来的竞争增加筹码,唯有如此才能获取机遇,在IT业日趋激烈的竞争中立于不败之地。“下注”环保 IT业的发展为人们提供了价格低廉、性能齐全的产品,厂商对科研的巨额投入使产品更新换代时间缩短,再加上消费者 Starting from the latter half of last year, the major computer companies appear to have been suffering from the economic downturn.
