Must not mean much. Could be because no PCs today get sold without it. I know about Saturn Münster (Saturn is one of the two major electronic warehouse chains in Germany and belongs to the same corporation like infamous Media Markt) that a salesman in the PC department said the separatly available Vista copies they have in stock lay "like lead on the shelves". I know that guy, we sometimes meet for spending lunchtime breaks together. I think he knows how the sales with Vista are going in their (big) store.

Releasing high sales numbers also is a means of advertising, and undermining doubts of potential customers.
