Windows 7 Hits 100 Million License Mark
Taken from Engadget:
It’s hardly been a secret that Windows 7 was on track to become Microsoft’s fastest-selling operating system, but the company has just now finally made that designation official, and also revealed that the OS has crossed the magical 100 million licenses sold mark in the process. In other words, that translates to Windows 7 being installed on one in ten of the world’s PCs just six months after it launched, which is pretty darn impressive any way you slice it.
Given the enthusiastic reception Windows 7 has received since it’s beta testing phase, these figures are not too surprising. Some quick maths with a conservative average price of $200 per copy of Windows 7 would give Microsoft a tidy 20 billion dollar profit over the last 6 months.
