Hao bet Win8 actually blocked Win7

Computer store news: The industry's question about Windows8 has never stopped, but the official first-month sales data finally gave Microsoft a lot of face, with a monthly sales figure of 40 million. Little-known is that Microsoft has tried its best to promote Windows 8. One of its methods is to block Win7 in a specific channel.
At this stage, the sales channels of Microsoft Windows and Office products in China are composed of three aspects, among which the six major generations are the absolute main force, and the total generation includes Digital China and Jiajie. These total generations are then distributed through distribution channels to further distribute the goods. In addition, e-commerce including Tmall has also become a channel for their distribution.
A salesperson of Digital China told Sohu IT that God has signed Microsoft for many years and its product sales have been good, mainly in the enterprise market. Jiajie’s staff also expressed similar views.
One of Microsoft's partners, Liu Qian, general manager of Beijing Diwei Tongxin Technology Co., Ltd., the operator of Microsoft's domestic experience store in Zhongguancun Dinghao Store, said in a dialogue with Sohu IT that the company is also selling Windows and Office. Products, including Windows and Win8 and Win7 two categories, from the current situation, Win8
sales are good, the acceptance in the enterprise market is relatively high, last year was about 2 months 10 million turnover.
Channel vendors including God Code, Jiajie and other generations have expressed similar views: Win8 shipments are concentrated in the enterprise market, and orders from the consumer market are few.
In fact, Microsoft has made a lot of adjustments to promote Win8, and there are many ways to sacrifice Win7 to give way to Win8. For example, Microsoft ordered that online licenses can only sell Win8, and all channels, including Microsoft and Microsoft's total generation, must not sell Win7 license serial numbers.
Since there is no installation version in Win8, this means that customers can only choose boxed Win7 and online Win8 when purchasing. Online Win8 is sold through a license. For example, a company may need dozens or even hundreds of authorized installations, but Microsoft only needs to provide a KEY. Of course, users need to pay based on the number of licenses.
Before Win8 went public, consumers could buy Win7 online. Obviously, after Win8 went public, Microsoft narrowed the channel of Win7, which forced users to migrate to Win8.
A director of Digital China told Sohu IT that the impact of this change on enterprise customers is immediate. The reason is that corporate customers are usually hundreds or even thousands of users, which means that it is very convenient to operate electronically. And if you buy a box and then license one by one, it will become very troublesome, and Microsoft's strategy is also to hope customers to buy online.
Despite this, the fatigue of Microsoft Win8 has begun to show up. After experiencing 40 million sales in the first month, Win8's sales have fallen sharply. In fact, the reason for the decline is also normal. The sales in the first month covered a large number of pre-installed users, and this part of the data will be gradually removed in the subsequent sales.
