Japanese bought more flat-panel TVs than new PCs last year.
Microsoft Corp's delay of Windows Vista till early this year caused many Japanese to hold off buying a new PC as well.
Consequently, PC sales were down 2.3% in 2006. But market share did not change.
Here are the top five in Japan. 
| Personal Computers | |||

| 2 | Fujitsu | 17.5 | -0.3 |
| 3 | Dell | 14.2 | 1.9 |
| 4 | Toshiba | 9.9 | 0.8 |
| 5 | Hewlett-Packard Japan | 6.5 | -0.2 |
All told...14.28 million units were bought in Japan last year.
