Microsoft Boasts 90,000,000 Windows 7 Sold

By - Source: Tom's Hardware US

Windows 7: Over 90 Million Served.

Even when Windows 7 launched into a warm reception (and brisk sales), Microsoft didn't reveal exact sale numbers for its new OS – until today.

Microsoft CFO Peter Klein announced at the Morgan Stanley Technology, Media & Telecom Conference that Windows 7 has sold 90 million licenses to-date.

Up until recently, Microsoft's company line when boasting about Windows 7 sales is that is the fastest selling operating system in history, but without any accompanying number.

This news comes just days after the expiration of the free use of Windows 7 Release Candidate.

    iKurafHaha, very good Microsoft. I love you!! A very big fan here.

    No offence, but being a big "fan" of a corporation is kind of... sad.

    90M is quite impressive. I wonder if this includes technet subscriptions (I assume so).
