- tim333 11y agoOf mild interest, in the Sony hack: "The hack, which was launched Nov. 24, only affected computers with Microsoft Corp's (MSFT.O) Windows software, so Sony employees using Apple Inc (AAPL.O) Macs, including many in the marketing department, had not been affected." IMHO Microsoft still have a fairly ho hum attitude. If you want to hack a company like Sony the easiest way is to target employees still using old systems like XP and they could have mopped a lot of that up by offering free upgrades to 10 when they offered them to users of 7 and 8 but nah.
- jerf 11y agoBy the time of the Sony hack, any machine still using XP is a machine that would be using XP even if Microsoft did exactly what you suggest. There's been no lack of opportunities to upgrade and the cost of a Windows license is generally trivial next to the labor expense, training expense, and monetized risk of "my critical software doesn't work" of the upgrade of these systems.
