Demand for computers has not gone down, if you include internet-enabled smart phones and tablets as "computers". The market for desktops and laptops is levelling off, particularly in developed counties.
Economies of scale, increased competition and lower component costs have induced a favorable supply curve for consumers. A longer useful life of computers may also have contributed to a reduced turnover.
