customers have obtained more than 1 million copies of the Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional, Server and Advanced Server operating systems since the worldwide launch less than one month ago.

It doesn't say anything about them actually having installed these copies, though. Perhaps that explains the low level of calls -- people are still waiting for their hardware upgrades!

I could be way off base, but I thought there were about 5 million new PC's sold per month. One million copies could be almost all manufacturer installs on new PC's, which I hope would work straight out of the box without the need for a support call.

Plenty of room for spin here, it seems to me.

JMHO.
