How would cooling our jets help? I really like the idea of going into Linux, and the more MS pushes the subscription/rental model, the more I'm encouraged to do so. Corporations like to float their ideas to the media as a way of surveying the market. These rumors could be just that. The idea of building a Linux PC sounds fun. I never had the need for any of these subscription services. I have a backlog of games I own, my own HDDs, MP3s, from CDs or the like, that I bought. I don't need to pay yearly for those.
