Yes No. Of course, it would disable Windows on your PC if you didn't pay. That's why product activation was coupled with Windows XP. Microsoft released Windows XP and Office XP simultaneously in and both included product activation and the plan to eventually migrate to subscription products.
However, by the end of Microsoft had already abandoned the subscription concept with Office , and quickly returned to the shrink-wrapped business model and the old product development model with both products.
The idea of doing incremental releases and upgrades of its software -- rather than a major shrink-wrapped release every years -- was a good concept. Microsoft just couldn't figure out how to make the business model work, but instead of figuring out how to get it right, it took the easy route and went back to an old model that was simply not very well suited to the economic and technical realities of today's IT world.
Microsoft either forgot or disregarded that fact when it released Windows Vista, because, despite a long beta period, a lot of existing software and hardware were not compatible with Vista when it was released in January Since many important programs and peripherals were unusable in Vista, that made it impossible for a lot of IT departments to adopt it. Many of the incompatibilities were the result of tighter security. After Windows was targeted by a nasty string of viruses, worms, and malware in the early s, Microsoft embarked on the Trustworthy Computing initiative to make its products more secure.
The other big piece of Trustworthy Computing was the even-further-locked-down version of Windows that Microsoft released in Vista. This was definitely the most secure OS that Microsoft had ever released but the price was user-hostile features such as UAC, a far more complicated set of security prompts that accompanied many basic tasks, and a host of software incompatibility issues.
In other words, Vista broke a lot of the things that users were used to doing in XP. Security isn't even that big of an issue because XP SP2 and above are solid and most IT departments have it locked down quite well. As I wrote in the article Prediction: Microsoft will leapfrog Vista, release Windows 7 early, and change its OS business , Microsoft needs to abandon the strategy of releasing a new OS every years and simply stick with a single version of Windows and release updates, patches, and new features on a regular basis.
Most IT departments are essentially already on a subscription model with Microsoft so the business strategy is already in place for them. As far as the subscription model goes for small businesses and consumers, instead of disabling Windows on a user's PC if they don't renew their subscription, just don't allow that machine to get any more updates if they don't renew.
Then users would have the choice of renewing on their own after that. Will your company eventually migrate to Vista? Home R2 Library Forums. Ask a question. Quick access. Search related threads.
