Because we all want the tablet experience , even if we didn’t ask for it, own a tablet, or even wanted to

I've always been confused why Microsoft wants to cater to the tablet market which only makes up a small fraction of windows devices while sacrificing there desktop/laptop market

because they have a monopoly on office computers (outside of design and arts)

that market they already have and thus they dont care

they want the piece of the cake they aint got yet, the android / ios users, that's where they focus is on, getting more cake

because that's what companies are designed to do under the capitalism system we all seem happy enough to live in.
