Just last month, the Redmond, Wash., software giant tallied 200 million monthly active devices running Windows 10, registering faster growth than any previous Windows version. “From laptops to desktops to mobile devices, including Surface devices, the DoD is targeting its Windows 10 upgrade for completion in a year, an unprecedented move for a customer with the size and complexity of the DoD,” wrote Yusuf Mehdi, corporate vice president of Microsoft’s Windows and Devices Group, in a blog post on Wednesday."
