Windows 8 has pushed Microsoft customers to Apple

Before its launch, Microsoft's Windows 8 operating system was expected to help "heat up" consumer demand in the PC market.

However, contrary to that desire, the new platform above makes the consumption of traditional computers (desktop, laptop) worse, and made many OEM PC manufacturers . stand out with promises from ' software giant.'

Currently, two sources from the anonymous OEM manufacturer told ZDNet that Microsoft and Windows 8 are the main causes of the decline in PC consumption.

Even a source said that Windows 8 had "destroyed" the PC industry, while the other source said the platform pushed millions of customers to Apple.

It is worth mentioning that this is not the first time that OEMs have strong criticisms of Windows 8.

Previously, a Samsung executive said that Microsoft's new operating system was "not much better than Vista," while Asus Chief Financial Officer said "the demand for Windows 8 is not positive at this time." . '

If PC consumption does not prosper in the coming time, Microsoft will surely have to hear more complaints from their production partners.
