Official: Windows 10 has hit the 400 million device mark

"However, Redmond cheesed off many business users earlier this year when it retroactively removed from Windows 10 Pro a feature that enabled admins to restrict access to the Windows Store, and thus control what apps users can install. The move was portrayed by many as an attempt to upsell businesses to the Windows 10 Enterprise edition, which is only available through volume licensing deals."

That does not come across as a long term smart move because businesses will try and cling on to Windows 7 for as long as possible and a significant fraction of them will then move over to one of the unices rather than pony up for the more expensive Enterprise edition.
