i think they are trying to distance themselves psychologically from the "windows" logo, aura ...because of the "ads" that Apple is running and the comments people make about windows.
They have generations of OS ready to hit the market as soon as sales peak on the current OS software.
They are like most big companies, smoke and mirrors.
For instance: The current standard for HD TV's is now 1080i (resolution) Two years ago Sony already had 1956i res ready for market. Thats twice the current resolution of the best HD TV today. That was 2 years ago, so they probably have better now. thing is they hold their new tech's back until sales peak and begin a downward spirral, then they introduce, not the best, but the 'next' best generation, which has few but not all of the best possible advances. Maximizing profit, so we have to rebuy new every few years to keep up.
So Sony puts out ads sayng they have the best on the market? well they have better but you wont see it for years and so does MS ... the Windows Brand name may be on its way out but you can bet MS and theor OS department isn't. unless they've made a deal with Apple possible too...
well it works for the big companies ot have you needing virus software and other crap . Personally I use none, thats right NO virus software and dont get infected... I have a router and thats all.
95% of viruses come in emails (usually forwarded or piccie mails) and from downloading "free" stuff online.
Ask yourself who best interest is served in you getting viruses?
Virus software also slows down your comp, using resources ...
