Microsoft Moves 88 Million Copies of Vista

Apple may be hogging the OS spotlight today with the much-lauded release of Leopard, but that won't stop Microsoft from grabbing a bit of the glory. According to company officials, Microsoft has managed to move more than 88 million copies of Vista worldwide since the OS's January release.

Not too shabby, especially considering that a lot of folks in the industry were recommending that consumers hold off, at least until the release of the Vista's first service pack.

Sales of the OS have been growing steadily, up about 20 percent for each subsequent quarter since it shipped.
