Microsoft: Windows 7 Reaches 10 Percent Market Share!

According to Net Applications, Windows 7 reached a 4% market share in a very respectable less than three weeks, and in comparison, it took Windows Vista seven months to reach the same mark, and as of January 29, 2010, Microsoft announced that they had sold more than 60 million Windows 7 licenses.

So we think it can be said with relative certainty that Microsoft got it right this time with Windows 7, especially after the mistake they called Vista. They got it right developing a product better than its predecessor, with less annoying quirks, faster, smoother, and much more compatible with more peripherals and software.

Initial sales numbers and market share reports have shown that Windows 7 is on the right track, and it’s starting to become obvious that it will be one of the most successful products in Windows history, especially since it already caught 10 percent market share in just approximately three months after it arrived on the market October 22, 2009. Windows Vista currently holds around 20% market share, while the 9-year-old Windows XP is still alive and kicking at between 60-70%.
