Research firm Gartner said on Thursday it has cut its forecasts for global sales of personal computers in 2011 and 2012 as consumers increasingly pick tablets like Apple's iPad over PCs.
Gartner cuts its 2011 PC market growth forecast to 10.5 percent from 15.9 percent, and 2012 growth forecast to 13.6 percent.
"We expect growing consumer enthusiasm for mobile PC alternatives, such as the iPad and other media tablets, to dramatically slow home mobile PC sales, especially in mature markets," said George Shiffler, research director at Gartner.
Apple , who created the market for tablets with its iPad, unveiled new version of its product on Wednesday.
