Quotr It'll never happen anyway for a long list of reasons.

People said that about METRO/or whateved it is called this week.

The daily tithe for MS so that they will graciously let you get at your data (of which they probable have gleaned everything their AD partners need).

Probably not until 2020 but it will come. Downvote this all you like but MS's stockholders will demand OS licensing revenue returns to its old levels. There only so much blood that can be extracted from the Server OS Licensing.

Also, as Office will be only subsctiption based by then, adding another $5.00/day won't seem too much of a hardship now will it eh?
