However, something else will be rolled into win9 as well; remote authentication.\u00a0 Perhaps the opening salvo into a subscription model as done with Office instead of using a key system, which is constantly hacked, especially in China.\u00a0 Here is a quote from WZor on the Russian-language <a href=\"http:\/\/forum.ru-board.com\/topic.cgi?forum=29&amp;topic=7345&amp;start=2320#18\" target=\"_blank\">Ru-Board<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>It\u2019s assumed that the activation of products distributed via ESD-RETAIL channels will be more tightly associated with a specific PC and that activation will be done when user will log in to Microsoft Store. Activation key won\u2019t be given to user and he won\u2019t need to enter key manually.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So what is interesting here is the possibility that windows will join the update path that many OS now follow instead of having a major release every 18 to 22 months.
