It’s party time for Microsoft. It has sold 240 Million copies of Windows 7 in the past year making it the fastest selling Operating System in history.

No doubt, it was definitely way better than Microsoft’s previous mishap, Vista. More than 80% of the PC’s upgraded to Windows 7, which surely is much more than what Windows Vista had achieved. Windows 7 has also grabbed about 17% of the global OS market share.

Customer Satisfaction reports have shown a major jump for MS, which boasts out that it’s all because of the new OS. Businesses have adopted Win 7 happily and I guess it was just obvious, Vista was a disaster and to upgrade to 7 was the best option available. Thanks to the marketing campaigns by windows with which they took televisions and internet by storm have contributed to the sales. Microsoft is moving towards the cloud future, IE 9 and live essentials are a proof. Waiting to hear more from MS.
