FRAMINGHAM, Mass. — Dell Inc.’s personal- computer shipments rose the most in almost two years in the first quarter as a new retail strategy helped narrow the gap with market leader Hewlett-Packard Co.
Dell shipped 10.9 million units, up 22 percent from a year earlier, research firm IDC said Wednesday in a statement. Hewlett-Packard’s shipments climbed 17 percent to 13.3 million.
