I'm not sure what this article has to do with Microsoft.

  Granted, the article authors are really stretching to add another big corporate name to their article. However, Microsoft has been known in the past to dictate what an OEM can and cannot do. The example that comes to mind is their "if you want a discount on Win licenses, Windows will go on every machine".

    Presumably, subsequent smackdowns by the EU and the US Justice Department have introduced a certain amount of cautiousness at Microsoft. Disclosure: I am a Microsoft employee.

  In the other article (behind the paywall) the WSJ claims that Microsoft used patent licensing threats against Android to kill the dual-boot Windows/Android device.
