Believe it or not, but apparently Lenovo is currently one of the "best" performing PC makers in recent time. So much so, they've produced more than 13.8 million units (PCs and laptops) this year alone!

"Chinese PC maker Lenovo has replaced Hewlett-Packard as the world's top PC maker, according to preliminary figures released by research firm Gartner. Gartner said Lenovo shipped 13.8 million units in the third quarter, compared with HP's 13.55 million.

It said Lenovo's "aggressive" price cuts had helped it gain substantial market share. However, research firm IDC's data put HP at the top, though it showed the gap between the two was closing.

According to IDC, HP shipped 13.9 million units, giving it a 15.9% share of the global market, compared with Lenovo which enjoyed a 15.7% share with 13.8 million units. Analysts said that Lenovo has been among the best performing PC makers in recent times and was likely to gain further market share."
