REDMOND, Wash. (AP) - Microsoft Corp. said Monday it sold 20 million consumer copies of the new Windows Vista operating system worldwide in February, but analysts said the data shed little light on the program's popularity during its first month on the market.
By comparison, Windows XP, Vista's predecessor, sold 17 million copies in the two months following its 2001 launch, Microsoft said.
"It's a stronger than expected start," Bill Mannion, a director of product marketing for Windows, said in an interview.
