I would add to this:

11. Forced upgrades of both hardware and software
12. Restrictions of use through licensing
13. Large costs of OS and Office software
14. Incessant misuse of monopoly to enter other markets by adding features 
to Windows
15. Minor innovation between versions
16. Content maffia appeasement by stuffing the OS chockfull of DRM
