users, it makes sense for many
to run Windows.


In general that is what Micro$oft is hoping to have happen, if not already.
Then Micro$oft will begin moving to a "subscription" based licensing model.
They will have to do this when the market reaches saturation and new
software sales begin dropping. They will then use the new subscription based
licensing model to keep their revenue stream going if not increase it. At
that time GPL based software will be much more appealing.
