As Predicted, Windows 8 Flopping

As predicted in my earlier article from October, Windows 8 is flopping.

To give you an idea: You’ve probably heard of Windows Vista, the most hated Microsoft operating system of all times. Well, at this point in time after its release, Vista’s uptake was 2.2% of all Windows based computers. Windows 8’s you ask? 1.6%. So Windows 8’s uptake is falling behind the last and worst of Microsoft’s flops (Vista).

Windows 7’s uptake at this point in time after its release (2 months)? 6.2% of all Windows machines.

Just saying.
