The Japanese Nikkei has reported today that Sharp is officially out of the PC business, pulling the plug on their personal computing operations.
Sharp has not put out a new PC in the last year.
Additionally, the report says that Sharp will now re-focus on "marketing its Galapagos tablet devices coming out in December, along with providing content such as e-books, music and video for these products."
Sharp is a big player in the HDTV, LED, LCD and solar markets.
Many major computer makers have shifted their focus away from PCs towards tablets and other mobile devices.
