With today's free spring update for Windows 8.1, Microsoft is pushing out more than mere tweaks and bug fixes. It's pushing out a message: "We're listening," Microsoft is whispering. "PC users, we want you back."

And amazingly, this digital love letter should woo over all but the most obstinate of the PC faithful. The Windows 8.1 Update is still not quite perfect, but it atones for Windows 8's most egregious sins, finally transforming Windows 8 into a desirable operating system even for diehard keyboard and mouse users. There's little reason not to migrate to Windows 8 if you're on the hunt for a new PC now.
