Laptop sales have doubled in the Middle East, says Jordanian blog Jazarah. “Personally I guess the growth in internet penetration is one of the main reasons behind the growth in laptop sales, the number of internet users in the Arab world is in a continues growth, for instance, social networking users in Arabia and Africa grew-up by 66% in 2008, so were are talking about millions of Arabs are on social networking sites, not to mention other internet services, more reasons to be online,” he explains.
