Microsoft pay-as-you-go PCs?


Microsoft , Patent

A new Microsoft patent application hints at pay-as-you-go PCs.

Microsoft pay-as-you-go PCs?

Microsoft is looking at offering a computer with "scalable performance level components" and selectable software, which sounds somewhat similar to the "managed PC" that Microsoft developed with Korea's KT telecom , Engadget reports. That would let users only pay for the features that they used, with some added graphics performance or storage space. To prevent "unlocking" the PC, each computer would also come equipped with a security module and metering agent.
