At the processor level, here is one way of looking at the "post PC" trend. Because of a fall in sales of PCs, AMD has fallen from the number-two spot for processors to the fourth position, in terms of market share. 

Qualcomm and Samsung moved up, both on the strength of sales of mobile processors.
