Microsoft Reports Record Profits

By

Microsoft Corp. today announced revenue of $14.40 billion for this quarter, a 32% increase over the same period of the prior year! This news comes as a big relief to those investors and Microsoft partners who heard constantly that Vista was too pricey and that sales of the new operating system were slow.

This quarter marked the consumer launches of Windows Vista and the 2007 Microsoft Office system, and we are delighted with the positive customer response these products have received, said Kevin Turner, chief operating officer at Microsoft. We continue to deliver on our compelling product cycle and build upon strong field sales and marketing execution in order to drive revenue and profit growth for the company.
