The Windows 7 continue to be the most widely-used functional system σε όλο τον κόσμο, και σύμφωνα με κάποια νέα στοιχεία που παρέχονται από την Net Applications, το μερίδιο αγοράς του αυξάνεται συνεχώς, καθώς όλο και περισσότεροι χρήστες το εγκαθιστούν στην θέση των Windows XP.
Η Microsoft will officially stop her support of Windows XP on April 8, and thus more and more users are starting to switch their systems to this particular platform and not to Windows 8.1.
Windows 7 seems to be the great winner of this Microsoft decision, after the March figures of 2014 show that it is now in the 48.77% of desktop systems around the world, from 47,31% that was the previous month.
Of course, it's no surprise that Windows 7 is the winner of the Windows XP retirement decision because Windows 8 and 8.1 are rather disappointed with Microsoft's customers.
However, Microsoft hopes to get more users for Windows 8.1 and presents its operating system as the primary destination of Windows XP system owners, emphasizing the security and performance of the new operating system.
