New York Times reported that Intel, the biggest CPU producer in the world at the same time partner of Microsoft had since long ago decided to not upgrade their operating system (OS) that use by his 80,000 employees to Windows Vista and chose to immediately changed to Windows 7.

The source said that Intel took this decision after the department of their internal technology carried out the analysis in a manner gave details about the price, the loss and the profiit that were received from the migration to Windows Vista. The newest OS from Microsoft, often was criticised as one of OS with slow performance that needed expensive hardware to be able to operate well.

“This decision was not carried out to insult Microsoft, but the Intel IT employee did not find the good reason for adopting the Vista,” said the source. Intel spokesperson said that they beforehand tested and implemented Vista in several departments, but not for all the company.

The decision was confirmed painful for Microsoft because both companies had co-operated since long ago to guarantee hardware compatibility and software. Moreover both of them were also known as “Wintel” in the PC industry.

Intel not the only one big company that refused to use Windows Vista. As far as this is concerned already many big companies that always choose to be waiting one year or more after the new Windows version went out before using him, so that bugs available has been improved beforehand. “But usually after your 18 months will see the sale that rocketed, and we did still not see at this time,” said David Smith, an analyst from Gartner.

Michael Silver, Smith workmate in Gartner said that around 30% corporate client usually passed one of Windows new released version. This percentage will be higher for Vista, according to the Silver prediction. Gartner corporate clients that planned to not use Vista did not see the existence of the profit from upgraded this, especially because the Vista needed high PC requirement in the weak economic situation.

But, Microsoft also not too much difficult sold Vista to several big companies. Microsoft said that is gotten by more than 140 million Vista units that installed in PC all over the world.

Once again Microsoft said that although they often accepted the protest from the client, they continued to stop the Windows XP distribution to shops and stopped giving of the licence to the producer PC next week. Microsoft also made an announcement that the further Windows version, Windows 7 will begin to be sold in January 2010.
