Honestly? It's because Microsoft was a bully and pissed people off. I don't care how good Windows CE was, I would never buy one. I have a Wii and a PS3, but I don't have an Xbox360 because it's a Microsoft product. The only reason I can think of to get a Window machine is to play "Thief 4" when it eventually comes out. I got my last one just to play "Thief 3". Much of the market over the last 15 or more years has been based on "what is the non-Microsoft company offering?"
