Toshiba B2B product marketing manager Cindy Zwerling revealed to ZD Net that a whopping 99 percent of Toshiba's business computer sales are still Windows 7.
"Windows 7 is clearly the enterprise operating system at this time," she said. "But there are pockets of the corporate population that use [detachable] tablets, and might be running Windows 8."

"But for your standard clamshell notebook? It's Windows 7," she added.

"From a business perspective, I would say 99 percent of our sales are Windows 7," she explained, noting that it was "clearly" the best operating system at the moment for the business market, and was why Toshiba loaded it on its new systems.

"At this point, there are few exceptions in corporate America in the enterprise space for Windows 8," she added.
