  Why falling PC sales means Windows 7 is on the way
Time: 16:47 EST/21:47 GMT | News Source: *Linked Within Post* | Posted By: Andre Da Costa

So here's an interesting point that grows out of the analysis by Gartner suggesting that PC sales will fall this year: if history is any guide, it means that Windows 7 is coming this year too. That's because the past three major releases of Windows have all seen falls, or at least slower sales growth, in the years in which they're released. That's because businesses, which are the prime buyers of PCs (about 3:2 over consumers), hold back when they know there's a new version of Windows in the offing.
