Will someone pinch me please!
I’ve pinched myself but if I’m part of this Microsoft dream, I wonder if it would wake me at all.
Microsoft has been long criticized for their cost of licensing products. Every time a new OS comes out I find myself digging through the couch for extra change because, let’s face it, the cost is rarely ‘cheap’, even when upgrading. So when I read this tweet…

Upon further reading the blog, a tad bit of reality sunk in as it seems this is a promotional price through 1/31/2013 yet does include the Media Center ‘plug in’ for free. Pricing on that still seems a bit elusive.
I’ve been using each of the Windows 8 previews: DEV, Consumer, and Release. I wanted to test this innovative OS out each step along the way. I’ve been VERY impressed, though feel the Xbox Music App needs more work.
Another feather in Microsoft’s cap as they continue to display their teeth and their competitive edge!
