  Has Microsoft "pulled a Vista" by offering Windows 8 downgrade rights?
Time: 10:27 EST/15:27 GMT | News Source: ComputerWorld | Posted By: Robert Stein

Microsoft is treading a thin line with its decision to allow people to downgrade from Windows 8 to Windows 7 or Vista when they buy a PC with the new operating system - and it might not pay off. For enterprises, it's clearly a good move, because many businesses will not want to gamble with an operating system designed more for tablets than PCs. But if consumers downgrade en masse, it will spell failure for the new operating system.
