Well its shows that Windows 7 likely the most popular and convincing OS to be used.

Unlike Vista the impact made a little percentage and they prefer back to XP on it.

Yes, Vista made little impact, but that was because people were not happy of the all of a sudden change. After SP1 of Vista it's been fine. Also since 7 has come out everyone's prefers that OS.

lol taiwan is 245 miles long I'm pretty sure anywhere is close to me :)

Still 600 million copies is a lot. Also even if Windows 8 comes out I reckon that 7 will still be the top selling OS.

Didn't Microsoft make a deal for people to upgrade for $15 when Windows 8 comes out?
