Default Microsoft Giving Away Windows 8.1?

Came across this little blurb. chuckle, chuckle

http://www.theverge.com/2014/2/28/54...ing-experiment

What a joke as a marketing ploy. When half your customers don't like
the product, giving it away won't change that consensus. MS has
already reduced licensing frees with little or no tangible results.

MS is in denial. It needs to get its head out of the sand, and give
their desktop customers what they want: A true desktop, mouse and
keyboard version.

It would also be nice if it ran on users' current hardware and
a totally new system purchase wasn't necessary. But perhaps, I'm
dreaming, and asking too much. This IS Windows after all.
