Microsoft-Sony struggle plays on

sales down - upgrades down: "Actually, I got the exact opposite impression. Because computer sales are decreasing and people tend not to upgrade to new OSes, etc., MS is leveraging the popularity of the X-Box to keep the need for new versions of the desktop."

only because sales have been down, consumers do not have a choice of what OS to buy, some wont even allow you to choose Win2k over XP home; Posted by: JWatson77 Posted on: 12/14/03 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
