What I'm interested in is the final pricing scheme, upgrade paths, and exactly what this subscription model means. Earlier announcements were hopeful in the respect of a free upgrade to Windows 10 and updates for a year. It's not that I have anything against paying for an OS, but I have found that Microsoft's traditional pricing of Windows was somewhat more than I was willing to pay. (On the other hand, I jumped at Windows 8 Pro for $40 at release.) The thing is, a free upgrade isn't an upgrade if it is only the Home version that is free and it doesn't support all of my system's memory. I'm also not terribly interested in paying annually for security updates, especially since the feature updates won't be particularly interesting from my perspective.
