Microsoft Windows operating system manufacturer, decided
the unprecedented move – Windows update to the latest
version 10 will be marked as free, even for users
having previously pirated versions of Windows.
According to Reuters, who informed them in their
pages, this is Microsoft’s open up the Chinese market, where three-quarters of
computers working on versions of Microsoft’s illegal. As reported by
on their web site Spidersweb.pl, illegal version free update
Windows will also include Polish versions of Windows. “We believe that over time, our customers will find on
benefits of using licensed version of Windows, and we
we want to help them, “- said Sebastian Pawlowski, director of
Microsoft Windows in Poland, quoted by Spidersweb.pl.
The decision group from Redmond said Terry Myerson, corresponding to
Microsoft’s operating system for the department during WinHEC,
held in Shenzhen, China.
“We will offer an update to Windows 10 all
computers, whether they have legal or illegal software in our
company “- confirmed in a telephone interview Myerson Reuters.
Myerson also announced that Windows 10 will be launched worldwide in the summer
this year. This is the first announcement of more specific release date of the new
version of the popular “windows”. Earlier speculation that Windows 10 can
debut in the fall of 2015.
This is not the first time Microsoft’s brave decision recently. The company announced in January that Windows update for legitimate owners of Windows 7 and later versions will be free.
The decision of the Redmond company is most likely
dictated by the desire to change the business model and mix
revenues. Microsoft’s competitors, such as Google, are in fact inclined to
not derive income from the sale of software, but the services associated with
use by the users of the offered software.
