Not to mention Microsoft's profits aren't from the OS but what they get from the user once they have the OS. Once they have the Windows user they then have a market to sell other Microsoft products, not to mention all the stuff on the Windows store.
They don't need profits from the OS as the OS pays for itself in the long run.
