because I am pretty hugely miffed at the fact that you only get one running copy per OS purchase. One of the reasons that MS OS's were so expensive was because they could be installed several times on the owners machines, perfectly legit. People could live with that.

So now MS have ended this and yet have not reduced the price of the OS which is a con of gigantic magnitude. To add insult to injury they offer family license at a derisory 10% discount, it should be more like 90%.

They are testing the market, and IMHO the market owes it to itself to give them a very hard time.

If I could buy a viable gaming linux I would do so... SO come on guyz make it real.
