From ComputerWorld: Three months after its launch, Windows 10 now powers an estimated 132 million PCs, according to data published Sunday by an analytics vendor.
Numbers released today by U.S. metrics company Net Applications showed that Windows 10's user share -- a proxy for the portion of all systems worldwide that ran the OS -- grew 1.3 percentage points in October to 7.9%.
Microsoft launched Windows 10 on July 29, making October the third full month that the free upgrade for Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 devices was available to download and install or was pre-loaded on new devices.
October's user share increase was slightly smaller than September's gain of 1.4 percentage points, and far below August's record 4.8 points, when massive numbers of users took advantage of the free upgrade.
