Given the success of Apple, that sounds like Windows is attempting to meet customer expectations. In any case, It seemed to me that the OP was arguing for a pro-lockeddown position, which is why I asked what the merits are.

I think gp’s position is that customer expectations of apple and windows platforms are different- that locked-down-ness was something that, when people could deal with it and preferred it, already were not the core windows customers.
