Your peevishness is so telling.
This comment is frequently made and frequently udnerstood by most everyone but you. Why?
To clear up your questions: US recession of course. Retaling software and services has nothing to do with it. Yes, we are talking major players.
At the time (we have gotten past the recession you realize), eMachines was both unprofitable and not major. Unisys is not a PC manfuaturer, they are a systems integrator. Panasonic is not a PC manufacturer, they are a consumer electronics company, etc...
The point you are missing is that in the past decade when everyone has been predicting Apple's demise, we have seen tens of PC manufacturers come and go.... We are getting down to just 4 of them soon...
