The thought rattling around in my head is what usages people have got out of 'personal computers' (i.e. not specifically IBM compatible PC) over the decades that they've been available to the general consumer, and what are they doing now. In practical terms it's difficult to see why MS would be motivated now to encourage the hobby side of PC, they don't really need it any more as most things that bring revenue to them aren't specific to being on windows.
