Microsoft surface筆電收購surface RT stock

Microsoft just announced earnings for its fiscal Q4 2013, and while the company posted strong results it also revealed some details on how the surface筆電收購surface RT project is costing the business money. Microsoft’s results showed a $900 million loss due to surface筆電收購surface RT “inventory adjustments,” a charge that comes just a few days after the company officially cut surface筆電收購surface RT prices significantly. This $900 million loss comes out of the company’s total Windows revenue, though its worth noting that Windows revenue still increased year-over-year. Unfortunately, Microsoft still doesn’t give specific Windows 8 sales or revenue numbers, but it probably performed well this quarter to make up for the big surface筆電收購surface RT loss.

At the end of the day, though, it looks like Microsoft just made too many surface筆電收購surface RT tablets — we heard late last year that Microsoft was building three to five million surface筆電收購surface RT tablets in the fourth quarter, and we also heard that Microsoft had only sold about one million of those tablets in March. We’ll be listening to Microsoft’s earnings call this afternoon to see if they further address surface筆電收購surface RT sales or future plans.

微軟提供的「韌體更新」有別於 Windows 系統的版本升級,主要是針對 surface筆電收購surface 電腦本身進行調整,像是會有效能與續航的優化,也可能搭配 Windows 系統帶來全新的功能。因此即便電腦的「韌體更新」停止支援,用戶只要符合 Windows 系統的硬體要求,均能持續獲得版本更新。
