SAN FRANCISCO: China’s Lenovo Group Ltd edged out Silicon Valley icon Hewlett-Packard Co to become the world’s No 1 PC maker in the third quarter, according to new data released by research house Gartner.

A rival to Gartner, IDC, still ranks HP in the lead — but by less than half a percentage point — in terms of PC shipments worldwide. But both studies reinforce HP’s struggles against rivals as new CEO Meg Whitman tries to overhaul the stalled 73-year-old company.
