Well, they won’t be able to sell as many new computers if they let people keep using their old ones.

They aren’t big in selling hardware.

Doesn’t matter, they still get money for Windows licences from OEMs.

I know, just clarifying that their main business isn’t selling hardware.

Their main business isn’t Windows at all, but they’re still in the market

The comment was about selling new computers and not using old ones. They want to sell more software, they aren’t hardware focused.

And that comment was 100% correct. They want more computers sold, because more computers sold means more Windows licences sold.

You’re acting like PC hardware sales are unrelated to Windows license sales.
