Windows XP wants to make Xian Win7 become the global operating system boss

Computer store news The latest data released by well-known market research organization Net Applications shows that Windows 7 will soon surpass XP to become the world's most user-owned operating system.

After a long period of domination, Windows XP is finally going to give up the world's largest operating system. According to Net Applications' survey data on operating system market share in May, we found that the current market share of Windows XP is 44.8%, and Windows 7 has reached 40.5%. This is the gap between Windows 7 and Windows XP since its inception in 2009. The closest one. It should be pointed out that Windows XP's market share reached 46% in April this year, while Win7 was only 38.8% at the time, which means that since April, the share of these two operating systems has become very obvious. This phenomenon is different.

Survey of operating system market share

In May 2011, Windows XP market share remained at 55%, when Windows 7 was only 27%. From this development momentum, Windows 7 market share will eventually surpass Windows XP in the next few months. Of course, the road to catching up with Windows 7 will not be so easy. Because for an individual user, upgrading the operating system may be only a half-day, but for a company, system migration is a huge project. They must retest the newly installed hardware and software and train their employees on the operating system. I have worked in several different IT companies before, and the process of replacing the operating system with these IT companies can be described as "difficult", which may greatly hinder the Windows 7 catch-up. In all fairness, Windows XP is enduring because it has its own unique advantages, namely its system stability, and is compatible with most enterprise applications. But in recent years, more and more companies have chosen to upgrade Windows 7, Microsoft also encourages large enterprises to upgrade the system, the latter even said directly to business users "do not have to wait for the emergence of Windows8", such a statement, all this This makes Windows 7's share increase. Although it may take some time for Windows 7 to officially take over XP as the global operating system boss, this major trend has become irreversible.
