Market for industrial PCs in developing regions is predicted to grow significantly, reaching Euro 740 million by 2010, a report from IMS Research forecasts.

Developing areas such as Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the Russian Federation are expected to experience annual growth rates in excess of 13%.

Contributing to the growth, says IMS, is the increasing number of manufacturing companies relocating to these areas because of their comparatively low labor costs. Many of the countries are also benefiting from strong economic expansion.
