What is today the Windows world? All the numbers of market … – Il Sole 24 Ore

It is worth remembering but Windows is in nine out of ten computer desktop. If we add the operating system from Redmond to get a market share of 90.94% for pc; Mac Os Apple came under 7% while the computers running Linux are 1.5%. The data of the “cake” refers to August of this year and it is not surprising the low percentages of Windows 8 In April this year when Microsoft decided to retire Xp, most or all (half) ran on Windows leaving 7 to 8.0 and a 8.1 pc on nine. The combined share of the two installed versions of Windows has passed the barrier of 11%.

The timing of Bulgarian Windows Xp

Five years ago began the first signs of a slowdown in demand for PCs. Windows XP was at its height, a solid operating system and heir reliable Windows 95 The following year, the world is changing, or rather begins to crack. Tablet and smartphone take the stage. Rely only on PCs no longer counts as a time.

After the launch of Windows 8 will change little

Windows 8 was developed to prove the assault mobile devices. We are in 2013, the worst sales year in personal computers. In May, Microsoft announced that it has surpassed 100 million licenses sold with Windows 8, but the overall figure is marginal. A few months after leaving an upgrade but does not change the balance.

The Importance of Windows in the accounts of Redmond

In 2013, 65% of the proceeds Windows division was tied to the operating system purchased by manufacturers of hardware and installed on the device. What is then Window at Microsoft? 24% percent of net sales, approximately $ 19.2 billion. A voice so important but not crucial: the divisions Server and Tools business, and that together they made last year half of the turnover). This year there are to be amortized disappointing sales of Surface, the tablet made in Redmond launched last year. Already last year, the segment Oem operating systems had lost 3%. If we exclude the impact of the upgrade of the Windows drop rises to 10%, primarily due to a decrease of 9% in the sale of PC. This year’s mission Nardella is clear. With Windows 9 is forbidden to make mistakes. Here we retrace the history of the operating system of Microsoft, studded with great strides, from sales boom but also by sensational flop. For lovers the timeline from 1951 to the present day operating systems. E ‘stops at 2011, but will soon be updated.
