Summary

[edit]
Description
English: According to some estimates, Russia’s middle class grew nearly sevenfold between 2000 and 2006, and average monthly salaries climbed from the equivalent of $80 USD in 2000 to $750 USD by the end of 2010.

At the same time, the cost of buying a PC has dropped dramatically across the globe. According to data from Intel, the worldwide price for an average priced notebook PC was equal to 47.7 working weeks in 1995, which dropped to 5 working weeks by 2010.

“Today many people are walking out of stores with a new laptop and the equivalent of a hundred or so U.S. dollars left in their pocket,” said Dmitri Konash, general manager of Intel Russia. “That’s money they expected to spend but didn’t have to.”
