  Microsoft could learn a thing or two from GTA IV for Windows 7 release
Time: 16:37 EST/21:37 GMT | News Source: Blorge | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Grand Theft Auto IV, released by the much acclaimed Take Two Interactive, is one of the most successful pieces of software to ever hit the market. Are there things that long-time software giant Microsoft could learn from the one of the most successful software launches in video game history?

Writer Samara Lynn of Channel Web believes there are a few things that Microsoft could learn from GTA IV. First, Lynn believes that Microsoft should be giving more choices when they release operating systems; that doesn’t mean offering 18 configurations at ridiculous price points.

It means leaving existing operating systems available to consumers instead of moving to one platform immediately, as Microsoft did with Vista. Lynn writes, “VARs and technologists who have to support XP are forced to make a decision — keep XP and have to face the fact support will imminently end on it, or forage into the newer territory that is Windows Vista?”
