Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Windows 7 sales - good / bad?

Of course it is success sales wise because MS has basically monopoly in OS market. I am not saying that it is bad OS (a lot better than Vista) but this question had pretty obvious answer.

however if a apple laptop/pc is ever below $800, then we might have some concern



Does make you wonder if Apple should start to think about dropping their premium price tags to gain market share.



^^If apple does make a laptop for under $800, Microsoft is done, apple has 90% of the $1000 dollars and over laptops/pc market share



^^ya, but when you think about it, who else makes laptops/pc's that are over $1000, Alienware, and Hp, and I doubt anyone would pay $1000 for a hp laptop/pc

If that's true raif it's impressive and a big emough price drop could spell serious trouble for MS.



^^no I swear, I can not provide you a link b/c I seen it in a video from Cnet, I cant find it now. But all I said was that my statement is not that hard to believe, also that its true.



^^ill look for it tho



^^guys, google "apple owns 90% of over $1000 laptop market share" and ull find a lot of links from NDP, etc.



^^yes cause its NDP right, so its probably just the US. But think about it, 90-91%, man thats amazing.
