Microsoft officials are still not talking publicly about Threshold/Windows 9. There are rumors Microsoft is planning to offer Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 users some kind of deal — possibly even a free upgrade to Windows 9 — in order to get them to move to the latest Windows version once it's out next year. Well, they are a day late and a dollar short for this old cowboy. I moved to MacBook & OS X Mavericks months ago. Microsquish finally screwed up one time too many for me. I do not plan to return.
