That’s what Microsoft said on Monday when they released their numbers on the Windows Genuine Advantage program.

Since WGA launched in July 2005, over 512 million users have attempted to validate their copy of Windows, Microsoft said. Of those, the non-genuine rate was 22.3 percent. 56,000 reports have been made by customers of counterfeit software, which grants that user a free replacement copy of Windows.

It does appear though, that Microsoft is starting to pick up on the fact that most users want to try before they buy so they have posted online versions of both Office 2007 and Windows Vista!
