Microsoft to Exit Mac Market If Sales Continue to Lag | |
|
||
| Time: 10:54 EST/15:54 GMT | News Source: WinInformant | Posted By: Byron Hinson | ||

On the eve of Apple Computer's semi-annual MacWorld event, Microsoft has dropped a bombshell on the company: Work harder to accelerate Mac OS X sales, or Microsoft will exit the Mac market forever. This sentiment is one shared by many Mac developers, as Mac OS X has not sold well at all, as reported recently in WinInfo Daily UPDATE. Currently, Apple estimates that as few as 1 to 2 million people have switched to its latest operating system, despite the fact that it's shipped free on several million computers. But a more telling figure from Microsoft may put things in perspective: Sales of the software giant's OS X-specific Office version, dubbed Office v. X, have been very dispappointing, with the company selling just 300,000 units since the suite went on sale last year. Microsoft had expected to sell over 750,000 copies in the first year. | ||
