This is not "no chrome on future Windows platforms". This is no Chrome on Windows 10s, which is a stripped down version of Windows. It's meant for Chromebook like computers.
I am a huge fan of Microsoft stuff, I have a surface and love it. The new Surface Laptop they released last week has Widows 10s which doesn't allow you to install programs, only apps, which means no Chrome. However, you can upgrade to a full version of Windows for $90 - or free if you are a student.
For my work cell phone I just buy the cheapest phone out there. I was using an older iPhone which cost me all of $1. After years of hating the iPhone I just got a Lumia 735 - a microsoft phone. (Don't laugh, great phone for $5.) I am used to Samsung, which allows me to download any app I want. However, with the Lumia I am limited to the M$ store which.... sucks. I can't download Gmail, which makes the phone utterly worthless for me.
This is why the Microsoft phone never took off.
I'm sorry, you just cannot put out products out that don't allow you to do what you need to do. I understand M$ wants to push me into using their business products - word and excel, etc - but I have no need for this.
