Microsoft’s Ballmer Blames Poor Vista Sales On Piracy
[Edit]
[Edit]
It looks like Vista sales are falling short of expectations, and Microsoft is blaming pirates… er… maybe it’s because nobody’s using Vista at all! Arrghh!
Ballmer believes that one way Microsoft can bump up Windows sales is to tighten the screws on pirates. "Piracy reduction can be a source of Windows revenue growth, and I think we'll make some piracy improvements this year."
He said that there was software within Windows Genuine Advantage which could be dialled up by the Vole to make it even more tougher for the pirates to take out.
He promised that the Vole would "really ferret through how far we can dial it up, and what that means for customer experience and customer satisfaction".
