Windows More than 20 million copies of Windows Vista were sold globally in February 2007, the first month of sales since its widespread consumer release. That is significantly more than the 17 million copies of Windows XP that were sold in the first two months following its release in October 2001, Kevin Kutz, a director in Microsoft's Windows client group, told eWeek in an interview on March 26.

"Twenty Million"

Novell quoted in there last as 80 Million, although at the current rate of installs that is still only 3 months away from passing Linux. Although I don't think its relevant.

It is spun to be good news, simply becuase people not *choosing* Vista. People are getting Vista by default. Thats the real news. Ballmer is blaming *piracy* for the slow uptake.
