So useless

Microsoft prospered originally because IBM had to protect their legacy systems by crippling
the new stuff.  DEC did the same.  Car manufacturers do it. Everyone does it, and Microsoft is
no exception.  This move just happens to be more desperate, more obvious, and will be more
immediately counterproductive than their previous legacy protection moves.  Microsoft will
become synonymous with "old", "clunky", and "obsolete", and competitors will quickly learn
from the market to avoid Microsoft systems.

This will drive innovation in Linux handhelds much faster than if Microsoft played it smart.
Go, Microsoft, Go!
