According to Microsoft, they’ve sold 180 million copies of Vista. But according to HP, they’ve been shipping PC’s with Vista Business licenses and XP Professional on the hard drive. That makes XP the default OS that the customer uses.

Not Vista. XP.

To top it off, this has been since the June 30th date that Microsoft has declared that XP will be as dead as disco.

So, that raises an interesting question. Since we already know that Dell does the same sort of thing, how many Vista licenses that Microsoft sells through it’s partners like HP and Dell are truly in use?
