Android installed base might outgrow total Windows devices in early 2014

I love this Victor H's nonsense articles always slandering Microsoft, over and over. You can tell right by the headline that'll be another Victor H rant.

This "news" shows really nothing. It insinuates that all Android devices sold from beginning to present time are still being actively used, while the normal person Know that this is not the truth since there have been a lot of upgrades (new purchases) since our first devices, and that the old devices are now in some dusty drawer of forgotten things.

There are 1,25 billion devices actively RUNNING Windows at present date. Imagine then how many licenses that have been sold PRIOR to present date. Still "close to outselling Windows", huh? Please. Just please.

Secondly, what is there to compare, really? Android vs Windows - wouw, those are some comparable softwares outside the cell phone sphere, right? Gimme a F'ing break.

What a bunch of subjective Microsoft slandering bullcrap lacking afterthougt. As usual when it comes to Victor H, that is.

This site is going down the drain with no-clue writers like this, and I hope you read my comment Victor. Get your act together already, do some thinking beyond the reach of your nose next time you want to post some misleading "truth" fitting the personal taste of yours.

Windows 8 Hasn't Even Get To Show Any Impact Yet

There are a lot of Android tablets being sold but the iPad is still the dominant tablet. It's going to take some serious price reductions for the Surface to make big strides, and even then, it's not guaranteed. Not only does MS have to fight with Apple over the iPad sales, but Jelly Bean Android isn't far off for a lot of 10" tablets.

Brutal market indeed.

I think WP8 will have more chance of success with tablets than with phones.

Considering MS is completely alienating all of it's old customers with the W8 Metro - I doubt it.

WP8 is not going to dramatically impact Android sales. Maybe RIM BB sales, but not Android. WP is an ankle-biter for Android.
