Microsoft: Switching Your OS Is Illegal! | |
|
||
| Time: 04:56 EST/09:56 GMT | News Source: OS Opinion | Posted By: Alex Harris | ||

When consumers buy their computers with Windows preinstalled, they are agreeing to a contract that restricts them from installing any other operating system on that PC. Most individuals require little more of their PC than word processing, Web browsing and e-mail access. Today's average low-end personal computer is more than capable of these tasks and has been for the past few years. As a matter of fact, a computer that is three or four years old is more than capable of performing these duties. While some consumers insist on buying a new PC every couple of years, (if only to have hardware capable of running the latest version of Windows), few of these individuals' computing needs ever change throughout the upgrade process. Without their insistence to have the latest and greatest, they could have remained productive on their previous machines for several more years. | ||
