This may not be helpful, and I am not an attorney. but there is no way to legally change an EULA once issued. IOW if you purchasedthe software under terms X,Y, and Z, it is not legally permissible for MS to change those terms to your detriment.


>>There has been speculation in the press..and I said the same thing before reading it... that the Windows 8 UI (Metro) is the way of the future. RT is the way of the future, meaning no desktop apps. There are advantages and disadvantages to this for both the user and Microsoft. However, Microsoft has not said anything about this. The next version of Windows, supposedly is code named Blue. Mary Jo Foley says it will be out farily soon. Guess we'll know more then.
