While this is chickens coming home to roost, The whole concept that one can own a word seems to me so incredibly ridiculous.

Microsoft has long been like Scientology, the way they claim commonly used terms by overloading them with their own meanings. Remember "Digital Nervous System"? I seem to remember that BINDing to something else first...

I think Microsoft, faced with numerous scathing reviews of Windows 8 and particularly Metro, are beginning the inevitable distancing of themselves from it. This move is merely more smoke and mirrors designed to deceive users into using something that, unless used on a tablet or touch screen, most are sure to hate.
