Microsoft Will Continue to Offer Windows 7 to the Chinese

When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. That is Microsoft’s stance with the Chinese who just banned the use of Windows 8. To combat the loss of Windows 8, Microsoft will continue to offer the Chinese government Windows 7 instead.

The announcement of the ban of Windows 8 on China's government PCs came just a few weeks after they revealed that it would continue to use Windows XP, even though the nearly 13-year-old OS will no longer receive any security patches and updates from Microsoft.
