According to a recent BBC report sales of Microsoft's newest operating system are brisk. In fact sales of Vista have been much hotter than anticipated. Read on:
Microsoft has sold nearly 40 million copies of Vista, its new operating system replacing Windows XP.
According to chairman Bill Gates, sales had been quicker than Microsoft had expected. Windows is used on more than 90% of the world's personal computers.
Vista has been on sale to consumers since 30 January, and there had been concerns that take up might be slow, hurting profits.
"I'm really thrilled at how this has come together," Mr Gates said.
Speaking at a company conference in Los Angeles, he added that one of the reasons for the strong sales was that many consumers were looking to increase the amount of digital media they used, a central feature of the Vista package.
Heheh! And here I am just having switched from Windows 98 to XP only a mere few months back. I'm in no hurry to change over to Vista just yet. Particularly since I've been hearing some not so flattering feedback in regards to it in the techie forums. What are your thoughts? Are you currently using Vista? If so, is it all that it's cracked up to be?
Cheers!
