One statistic that Microsoft officials cited on June 15, the day Office 2010 began selling via retail, seemed off to me. According to Microsoft (based on comScore numbers), there are 1 billion copies of Office installed across the globe.
Hmmm. Aren’t there also just over 1 billion Windows PC users out there? Does that mean every single Windows user also has Office on her/his machine?
I asked Microsoft Business Division Senior Vice President Chris Capossela about the data during the Office 2010 consumer launch party in New York City last night. (To see some shots from the party, check out blogger Long Zheng’s pictures of the orange-themed event.)
