It's called "Microsoft Account" this month, not Live ID. They push you to create one to sign in on your shiny new Windows 8 computer, putting the button to create a local account in a place most won't ever notice it. If you avoid creating one at that point, you're right --they do let you use the computer and install patches without a Microsoft Account.
