Yes. They've made Windows 7 and Windows 8. Both fantastic operating systems. The only reason Windows 8 isn't doing well is because Windows 7 is so good that people don't need to upgrade, Windows 8 came out real fast after Windows 7 (there was barely two years between OS's) and because Windows 8 is completely new and people don't like change even if it's for the better. I've been using Windows 8 for about 3/4 a year now and I can safely say it is better than Windows 7...even on a non-touch screen device. |
Alright, "successful" then...
From the article: "A growth rate of 0.4% is absolutely horrendous, and — if we assume that PCs are replaced every five years — actually below the natural attrition/replacement rate."
Meaning people ain't just not upgrading to W8, they're choosing to upgrade to W7 instead of W8.
