Soon after we told you that Mac sales have gone up, Microsoft followed with an announcement that they’ve sold 450 million copies of Windows 7 licenses. The number is achieved after almost two years since launch last October 2009. Broken down, it’s 650,000 licenses of Windows 7 sold every day.

Microsoft claims Windows 7 is “the fastest selling version of Windows ever”. I don’t doubt the claim since the obvious increase of netbook and PC sales plus of tablets over the past couple of years have been impressive.

So Congratulations Microsoft! We’ll see if Windows 8 surpass this achievement.
