Pocket-Lint: "Microsoft has sold more than 240 million licenses for Windows 7 in its first year of existence, making it the fastest selling OS in history.
And, to mark its first birthday, Microsoft is releasing the Windows 7 Family Pack to the UK."
Windows 7 official support ended recently and inXile Entertainment are now pushing Bard's Tale IV players to install Windows 10 apparently. Considering it was originally playable in Windows 7, players are not liking the minimum system requirements change.
Building on the success of porting WoW's DX12 version to Windows 7, Microsoft has published help for other DX12 devs, which includes a runtime that supports all the features of Windows 10 October Update... including DirectX Raytracing.
That's right, DirectX 12 has come to Windows 7
Seems strange to port it to Windows 7 at the same time they started to notify customers it has reached its end of life lol
Woah, that's great actually! I can finally throw my Win 10 in the trash and go back to an OS that doesn't f*** up my games performance at each update.
considering that people were abandoning the Windows Vista Ship quickly, i believe it.
240 million? That's friggin' huge. I wonder how much of that figure went into gaming PCs?
240 million that just insane!
