微软：全球10亿用户 - 5亿用盗版 微软, 盗版, 全球, 用户

8687375

本月15号，微软操作系统部门官员Kevin Turner在一次会议上透露了一个惊人的数字 - 100万名微软软件用户中有1半没有购买授权。根据微软的统计，每天大约有10亿用户在使用微软的软件，其中有5亿是盗版软件，微软没有收到一分钱。微软称对此很无奈，“除了联合当地政府进行打击外，别无它法且收效甚微。”
“如今，微软软件的销售遍及全球191个国家。每天有10亿人在使用我们的软件。只有5亿向我们购买了授权许可。”
当然，微软也一直在打击盗版行为，去年国内的XP“黑屏事件”和“番茄花园风波”就是很好的例子。但只要微软还想统治操作系统市场，就必须在盗版和正版之间找到一个平衡点。
