   I think the problem is going to be similar with other consumer services like home broadband: It will be a numbers contest. People compare their cameras based on megapixels, where for practical purposes your photos are going to end up limite

   To me this resembles how network locked mobile phones work in some ways. In the end we will end up with unlocked hacks, or legit ways to unlock an OEM machine either after some time has passed or to allow certain non-MS products.

   Perhaps they should give people the option to take on someone's US citizenship that they want to renounce, if they pay their outstanding taxes for them. The US gains people who pay, and lose those that don't.
