 Microsoft's latest.http://www.cnn.com/2008/TECH/12/29/micr ... index.html
tl;dr: Microsoft has some intentions for making computers, their products, cheaper to obtain, but to continue to have access and use, you have to pay by rates. |

Now if only game publishers would start building games that easily and efficiently ran on an open-source platform, we wouldn't have to worry about this crap.

Anything like this would kill them. I just don't see them following through with a deal like this.

These are computers you would buy for old people who rarely use a computer with the exception of e-mailing war buddies.
Besides, this idea is only really applicable commercially anyways. They're planning to make streaming millions off of their Office programs instead of a flat rate. Any smart Home-PC user would build their own anyway. |

So basically, only gamers will build their PCs and Microsoft will be like "LOL 99% OF OUR USER BASE PREFERS THIS, SWITCH TIME." _________________ I got a sex change. |
