We all know that Microsoft doesn't actually make computers. It makes the software, and then lets an almost infinite amount of manufacturers build computers that can run its software. These manufacturers often make a mess of things, delivering computers filled to the brim with crapware. What would happen if Microsoft made computers? Well, for one, they would be void of crapware. Two, they would help users install the software they want before leaving the store - including software from competitors.

purely from a marketing perspective this is kind of clever. get customers used to having all this crap on their pc for years and then offer to "fix" the problem and give them a smooth system free of junk. while this seems like who it should have been from the beginning I know a lot of people are going to flock to this going "finally! this sounds like what I want"
