For Microsoft, Windows is no longer a core business so much as a complement to the company's other offerings. The company doesn't release its total Windows revenue in its quarterly reports. Nelson said Microsoft will still get a short-term benefit from consumers and businesses that are still cycling off Windows 7 or Windows 8 and moving onto new computers equipped with Windows 10. "Pretty much from Day 1 Satya has been de-emphasizing Windows," Nelson said. Nadella last month split the Windows division in a reorganization that appeared to outside observers to further de-emphasize its importance.
