Microsoft Windows Users and iYogi Reveal 36 Percent Plan to Upgrade to Windows 7 on Existing PCs, Yet Significant Concern Remains about Application Migration
User Poll Shows That 43 Percent Will Need Extra Technical Support as They Move to New OS
New York, NY, October 5, 2009: iYogi, the on-demand tech services company with a unique global delivery model, announced today that an encouraging 36 percent of consumers expect to upgrade to Windows 7 on their existing PC. However, 68 percent are not entirely comfortable that they will be able to easily move their favorite applications over to the new Windows 7 platform. And nearly half (43 percent) expect to need more tech support help in order to move their favorite applications over to the Windows 7 environment.
These facts are among the results of a poll of more than hundreds of thousands of consumers regarding adoption and application plans and predictions around the upcoming launch of the new Microsoft Windows 7 operating system.
