All your points are valid as much as I can tell, but this one : "requiring a Live.com user for a local account,"

You can create a local account without any live.com user by just disabling internet while installing windows. I know it's still working around the software... But it's still doable.



I fell for the trick. Once you set up networking, you can't un-setup it even with a reboot.

Therefore, I had to disable the wifi in the bios. I felt fooled and it made me very angry.
