cambio di paradigma commerciale in Microsoft?

Microsoft realizes it must significantly reduce the price of its Windows OSes in order to compete in the modern world, where free OSes are everywhere.

 

Even Apple now lets you upgrade to the next version of its desktop OS for free. For decades, much of Microsoft’s revenue has come from its desktop and mobile operating systems, but it’s now willing to give up on at least some of these OS revenues to ensure that its software stays relevant.

 

Windows 8.1 with Bing is just one example.
