Yeah I almost mentioned the possibilities of this making PC Linux more mainstream. But then I remembered that PS4 runs on a custom version of Linux or Unix or whatever, and that hasn't helped Linux much. So I didn't say anything. If this made it so you didn't need windows to run 90% of PC games effectively, then that would be awesome. MS is way too greedy with their stupid policy stating that your copy of Windows is only good for a single build of your PC. What's that? You changed your RAM? Lol your Window's license has expired because according to MS you now have a "new" PC! Have fun paying an extra $35 to $100 for another copy of Windows! Also have fun if you pay $35 on a shady aftermarket seller, because MS may randomly decide that versions sold on there aren't valid! 

Honestly, I can see MS making Windows a subscription service OS in the near future. You gotta pay $5 to $10 a month for Windows. Like how Adobe and Autodesk currently screw their customers. 

I hope you're just being facetious because that's not how it works at all.  And even if you did change pretty much your entire PC, you can still carry over your license...unless it's an OEM license in which case you can then blame Dell, HP, or whomever for it being non-transferable.

Yes a little. The point is that when you buy a copy of Windows 10 you should be able to put it on as many personal computers as you own.
