Windows 7 forecast to squash Vista quickly
PC World | at | by Mike
Just more than a year after it launches, Windows 7 will account for nearly half of all the client operating systems Microsoft ships to corporate users, according to forecasts by IDC.
In 2010, Windows 7 will account for 49.5% of Windows operating systems bought by corporations, or nearly 58 million copies, says IDC. Those numbers dwarf Vista, which will account for 15% of the 2010 Windows operating systems Microsoft ships that year.
Windows 7 advance sales have been tearing up Amazon.com's best seller list since the OS hit its pre-sale stage more than a week ago.
