Strenghts Piracy: “ let them pirate software developed by Microsoft -that increases the overall number of Microsoft software users and some of them may eventually convert into paying customers.” You get some market shares rather than profit You can even beat your competitor(Linux requires more discs in some cases) A better image; A Microsoft dependency
Included with the PC Distribution channels are then the same as the ones of a PC Bundling: from http://www.investorwords.com/620/bundling.html « The practice of joining related products together for the purpose of selling them as a single unit. » Illegal in most of the countries
