Microsoft enjoyed its biggest year of growth since 1999, recording a turnover of $60bn in the fiscal year from July 2007 to June 2008.

The vast profits were helped by Windows Vista hitting 180 million licenses sold since its launch in January 2007, and continuing to build on its record-breaking popularity.
