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.
