Why are Microsoft giving this away?
And not just free but ramming it into your face via windows update.
Their flagship product and cash cow they have been milking for years is suddenly free?
I don't think so. Microsoft see it as a loss leader and they expect to be screwing more than an upgrade price from you somehow.
What that somehow is I am not sure. First step to subscription Windows as a service? They expect to to buy more than an upgrades worth of crap from their app store? They think the pile of poo is going to make you rush out and buy a Win phone or fondleslab?
Biting the hand that feeds IT
