I just realized this, ipads have free OS updates. If you buy a 500 dollar ipad, you're guaranteed at least a couple of free new OS upgrades.
Windows 8 doesn't.
This could be an issue for Microsoft in the tablet front, especially the WinRT tablets. If one buys a 4 or 500 dollar WinRT tablet, they aren't guaranteed Windows 9. They will be if they pay for it. And if one does, that tacked on at least 100 dollars to the cost of probably a tech degraded WinRT tablet.
Probably not good...
