Buahwuahwuahwuawa ... you have to be gullible to think that M$ will not 
NOT cash on their own slack coding. Of course they will, now i suspect 
they even will try to make it go as an added cost for the OEMs, so 
consummers will pay transparently for one year signatures updates ... as 
they do/did for OSes.
Remember .. they never had a choice in the first place, why would they now ?
