I ownder if its a tactic to get people, or mainly businesses to upgrade no so they are still in the windows ecosystem. They won't want to pay for windows, so making it seem like their computer is outdated and should be upgraded is not a bad strategy. If a movement of converting to Linux starts, many users might leave. For good.
