In which case people will switch to Linux and so will developers, as they will go where their customers are.

In other words, if Microsoft goes through with this, Windows is doomed.

You know youtube is going to subscription based too with some videos. So other video sites might get a bit more traffic soon.

good. I think Bill Gates isn't interested in anything but the bucks. You would think the defacto OS for the planet would be trimmer and faster. What's it called? Code bloat?

To live is to believe in the power of dreams! To dream is to believe in the power of love! To love is to Know the truth!
The Desire to Be fuel the belief that you Are which ignite the Will to Become which bring back forth the desire to be...
Let it be-come you! It means Stop seeking your higher self! It is seeking you! Stand still in your mind to calm the waters of your mind and then it shall find you, so you can ride those waves together!
your true self lies somewhere between your heart and your consciousness. It is called the heart consciousness,which is the creator, which is you!
The heart create the emotions and our mind evoke its purpose, from which we dream the life we live in order to imagine the nature of reality and finally remember love!

The highest Purpose of our mind is the ability to Forget! Go on and Forgive yourself!
There is no love in truth but there is truth in love!
Be authentic, nobody else can do it for you!

Re: Microsoft Rumored to start charging for windows OS with a Subscription per month
They should be paying customers monthly to test their crappy equipment for constant OS errors and hardware failure. Microsoft is shit, IBM and any clone? Shit! Xbox, Shitty doorstop. How many customers were disappointed by the Red Ring Of Death? I have never in my life owned bigger pieces of failing shit in my life. Who here has not been disappointed by either? Do yourselves all a big favor and switch to Apple. Costly but worth it in the long run. Bet

If they do it should open up the market wide enough for Google to swoop in and release their own OS and take over the market. Hell, they might even buy Microsoft after they go bust.
