To be honest, they probably are. My pet theory is that they're trying to do what do many politicians are doing - drive away everyone but the strongest base electorate that will stay with them no matter what they do. And then, the grift starts. I'm reasonably sure sooner rather than later they'll start charging a subscription fee to use Windows, and people and companies will bend over and pay it...
