Default Laptops

I was listening to the radio business news and it said laptops outsold
desktops for the first time last month (North America).

I have browsed a few news web sites and can't find a reference.

Can anyone find the story?

I have read the results of several surveys that show the dollar amount of laptops has recently risen above the dollar amount of desktop. I don't know if the number of laptops sold is greater than desktop yet.
