Vista 11 Sales Have Been Catastrophic, Says The Register MS, But It Then Starts Boosting a Ponzi Scheme, "Hey Hi" (AI)
"PC sales have stalled" says the headline
The Register MS has published an article that sells itself with a sane headline, then starts the meat grinders that infuse reality with a scam, "hey hi".
The stats in analytics.usa.gov say Vista 11's share has gone down over time, as it was higher in the past 3 months than in the past month and lowest (about 12.6% this past week) compared to many Windows versions that aren't even supported anymore. Incredible! Next year Vista 11 turns 5. And in the US they measure it at a meagre 12.6%. "There were 1.82 billion sessions in the last 30 days," says the page, so it is a very large survey.
Now, let's go back to The Register MS. The Linux- (and Linus-) hostile Simon Sharwood quotes Dell's COO Jeffrey Clarke and writes: "Clarke said that means 500 million PCs can’t run Windows 11, while the same number didn’t need an upgrade to handle Microsoft’s latest desktop OS."
BEGIN [word salad about "hey hi"]
Let's start throwing some "AI" pixie dust at it while Mr. Dell is massively laying off Dell workers in many waves: (as does HP; the OEMs cannot sell Windows, so Dell "pivots to" GNU/Linux)
OK, so everything will be fine. Because SOMETHING... SOMETHING... AI.
Let's hope, pray and worship chatbots, plagiarism, and Ponzi economics. █
