That's 8 of them actually -- a nugget of information that leaked due to yet
another embarrassing blunder:

So what is the deal then? Either you pay premium prices at the start or you
use your credit card to enhance (READ: unlock features of) Vista.
Essentially, you pay for the full package in installment. On top of that,
put security software (or annual OneKer subscription) and Office. Still, you
get less than what Linux gives 'out of the box'. Microsoft have embraced a
strategic suicide.
