Review Worldwide Storage Resource Management Software 2005-2009 Forecast Update and 2004 Vendor Shares / IDC Research:This IDC study examines the storage resource management (SRM) software market, looking back at 2004 performance in terms of market share and forecasting future market growth. The SRM software market is fueled by disk capacity growth required by new data protection schemas and regulatory compliance and continued storage infrastructure complexity. Storage resource management software provides for the management of storage and storage networks as resources and includes functions such as device discovery, topology mapping, event monitoring and reporting, and configuration management. The storage resource management market consists of four specific submarkets, which are included in this study. According to Laura DuBois, research director, IDC Storage Software, "Firms continue to struggle with the management of heterogeneous storage environments and are looking for ways to increase utilization, optimize performance, and reduce administration costs, given limited IT budgets. SRM software helps firms achieve these aims and frees resources to focus on other business-oriented IT services. ".

Review Western European Home Computing: What Will Drive The Next Wave of Consumer Spending? / IDC Research:The Western European consumer personal computing market has undoubtedly enjoyed a healthy uplift over the past 12 months. Regionalized economic factors and consumer market conditions have combined with an overall rebound in the PC market and rapidly declining average street prices to drive a consumer PC sales resurgence. The consumer PC market currently accounts for close to 40% of PC shipments in Western Europe, so its importance cannot be underestimated. Growth has been driven by booming notebook sales to home users as consumer electronics convergence fuels high levels of interest in the market surrounding new and exciting consumer technologies. Currently accounting for 36% of PC shipments, notebook sales will account for 53% by 2008. However, the desktop will remain at the heart of home digital entertainment. The retail channel has played an extremely important role in driving down prices, fuelling competition between the A-brands and white-box vendors. The development of Media Center oriented machines and the transformation of the desktop PC into a set-top box provide important considerations for future growth. "As the lines between home computing, mobility, consumer electronics and digital entertainment become blurred, vendors must seek to make their consumer computing messages as simple and coherent as possible, while at the same time ensuring that they are offering an attractive and price-competitive proposition to the end user," said Ian Gibbs, a senior research analyst with IDC's European Personal Computing Team.
