Re: MS is not the one to worry here
" Every one of those Win7 machines is a sale they haven't made."
Wait until they figure out that Micro-shaft (via Win-10-nic) is the one killing their sales figures...
it was obvious when win 7 machines sat next to win 8 machines in stores, and the win 7 machines outsold the win 8 machines by (as I recall) better than 2:1.
But you can't bitch-slap Micro-shaft with "obvious" and get them to accept it. They're too busy being arrogant and telling the customers what they're gonna accept. And self-shooting their own feet.
