Windows 7: Over 90 Million Served.


Even when Windows 7 launched into a warm reception (and brisk sales), Microsoft didn't reveal exact sale numbers for its new OS – until today.

Microsoft CFO Peter Klein announced at the Morgan Stanley Technology, Media & Telecom Conference that Windows 7 has sold 90 million licenses to-date.

Up until recently, Microsoft's company line when boasting about Windows 7 sales is that is the fastest selling operating system in history, but without any accompanying number.

This news comes just days after the expiration of the free use of Windows 7 Release Candidate.

Other than being a memory hog, Vista's problems were predominantly driver (or lack thereof) related.

They did have an upgrade deal on for months prior to the launch of Win 7. It was around 50 bucks or so.
