Netbooks, Office likely to keep hurting Microsoft sales, analyst says

,----[ Quote ]
| At least one analyst expects the trend to 
| continue, even with the release of a 
| netbook-friendly Windows 7 and a free Web 
| version of Office for consumers.
| 
| Netbooks made up about 12% of total Windows 
| shipments in the first quarter, Microsoft 
| general manager for investor relations, Bill 
| Koefoed, said in a conference call after the 
| earnings release. And netbook shipments are 
| likely to keep growing faster than the rest 
| of the market, acknowledged Chief Financial 
| Officer Chris Liddell.
