Infinity Ward says that Modern Warfare 2 has been a success on PC, despite controversy

Now you're all probably playing Modern Warfare 2 right now and enjoying the heck out of it, but did you know that before the game was released that the PC community was enraged that Infinity Ward were removing dedicated server support from the PC version of the game? This resulted in the creation of an online petition that had over 225,000 signatures from the community to put dedicated servers back into the game.
Despite this, Robert Bowling, the community manager over at Infinity Ward, has posted on the Official Modern Warfare 2 PC forums that while the PC version didn't sell nearly as much as the console version, it did apparently outsell the PC version of Call of Duty 4 in it's first week of release. The forum post is followed by a lot of negative criticism towards Bowling's comments, with most of the posters saying that the huge amount of hype made it sell a ton of copies on the PC.
