    The comment was about selling new computers and not using old ones. They want to sell more software, they aren’t hardware focused.

      And that comment was 100% correct. They want more computers sold, because more computers sold means more Windows licences sold.

        Here’s the quote:

        they won’t be able to sell as many new computers

        Their sales of hardware are insignificant.
