Microsoft CEO Steve Link Removed, but he did whip through a lot of stats during his Consumer Electronics Show (CES) keynote on January 6.
One of those stats only caught my attention this morning, when I saw a couple of folks tweet it.
Ballmer said during his keynote last night that there are now Link Removed.
Wow, I thought: Where are all these apps? Did Ballmer include in his count custom,Link Removed so they can work with Windows 7? Or was there some secret cache of touch-enabled, Jump-List-friendly programs I had somehow overlooked?
Were independent software vendors waiting in the wings to roll out a bunch of new, secret Windows 7 wares that no one knew about?
Nope.
Alas, it turns out Ballmer may have added a “7″ some embellishment to his claim that wasn’t supposed to be there. There are over 800,000 Windows 7-compatible apps out there, a Microsoft spokesperson clarified today, not 800,000 Windows-7-optimized apps
