Published by Minnaar Pieters on Apr 23rd, 2010, No Comments

Microsoft: “Windows 7 continues to be a growth driver for Microsoft and people continue to be excited about Windows 7.  Exactly 6 months after the launch on October 22, 2009, we’ve sold well over 100 million licenses of Windows 7. To put that in context, more than 10% of all PCs worldwide are already running Windows 7 today. That’s amazing!”
