Microsoft's annual revenue reached $ 60 billion

The largest IT-company in the world continues to break records of financial success. As follows from reports published today, for the last fiscal year, the corporation sold software worldwide for an unimaginable amount of $ 60 billion.

Microsoft's annual income as of June 30, 2008 was $ 60.42 billion (+ 18% compared to last year). Of course, not all of this amount was received from the sale of software, but it was MS Office and Windows that brought Microsoft the lion’s share of the money. The financial report shows the main sources of income for the last year. This is Windows Vista (180 million copies sold), Office 2007 Office suite, server software, Xbox 360 consoles and games for them.

Below is an excerpt showing the items of income by units. Interestingly, Microsoft’s online business is still unprofitable (- $ 1.2 billion per year). But finally it came out in the plus "game" unit.
