A few months back it was a bold statement made by Steve Ballmer the CEO of Microsoft? that a year from now between the Windows phone, tablets and PC?s that they will be close to 400 million new devices that will be running those new OS.? Right now Microsoft is at 1% of that goal.? Since Windows 8 has come to pass just over four million Windows 8 upgrades have been sold since last Friday.? This is a promising start but let?s remember that only ?175 million copies of Windows 7 sold within the first year on the market.? Now granted 7 wasn?t on mobile phones but I doubt that the phone market will make up the other 225 million needed to hit the 400 million mark.? So there is still a tall mountain to climb.
