Oh, Microsoft. I'll get out my tiny violin for you when you start wondering why you're becoming less relevant in the future.  |
Simple, they'll adjust by using various hardware controls to make sure your computer can't boot any OS but theirs, and to keep you from running any software they don't approve of. Its also why they're funding so many high school business courses; once kids have learned how to word process using the ribbon, they can't easily move to someone else's software.
