Bill Gates spoke in Tokyo last week, touting the immense sales of the Windows Vista operating system.
Gates stated that Vista, since releasing in 2006, has sold more than 140 million copies.
He stated that Windows Vista is right on par with where the success of Windows XP was during its life.
Gates called the sales rate of Windows Vista a “very rapid sales rate.”
Microsoft has been taking a lot of heat for Windows Vista due to the fact that many people have not wanted to upgrade from Windows XP to the next-gen operating system.
Things apparently are not going badly at all though for Vista in terms of sales. Microsoft, it seems, may not be so prone to rush out Windows 7, the follow-up to Vista after all.
