Cash Cow Vista
Cash Cow is what Windows Vista is all about. Forget about the critics, forget about the bash, forget that it was ranked as the worst product in 2007 by a reputable site. Numbers matter and Vista made a statement.
Microsoft sales in client division which includes the Microsoft Vista operating system:
rising 24.8% to $4.1 billion for the quarter ended Sept. 30
Microsoft operating income in client business:
rising 26.6% to $3.4 billion from $2.7 billion.
Microsoft stocks as a result of Vista holding its cash cow status:
rising 15.3% over the past year.
Microsoft Windows Vista has proven its worth muscling Microsoft into double digit rise in stocks, income and sales.
Not to be too biased with Microsoft, Apple also held its own with its powerful .51% percent rise for their OS X machines? Did I say point 5 percent?
Anyways, congratulations to Microsoft and Vista; a job well done.

I certainly agree it is a terrible product. I am looking at dumping for either XP or go to Mac.
Pure garbage…
