Tech Ticker

Microsoft has a reason to celebrate. Sure, Windows 7 has completed a year in the computer OS arena but it is the OS’ success that is more important. In a year of its launch, MS has sold more than 240 million copies of Windows 7 that includes retail sales as well as OEM licenses.

To translate these numbers into market share, about 93 percent of the new PCs run Win 7 or about 17 percent of the PCs worldwide.
