Micro$oft is sooo desperate...
They are trying so hard to compete overseas, but they just don't have a chance. Linux is spreading over there so fast now. M$ dropped the price of their XPee Home ed to $40 and they still can't sell it over seas, now a stripped down version can't even make inroads. Pretty soon they won't even WANT the pirated versions they are using, M$ will tick the users off so bad with their update hassles that eventually they won't get updates, get viruses & crap on their OS, it will crash, and they will reload Linux and NEVER look back. Micor$oft is its own worst enemy.
