"Microsoft new CEO makes windows os free"

Two points about the above title:

1. It's not the title of the linked article, which is "In A Six-Day Period, Microsoft's New CEO Satya Nadella Completely Changed The Company".

2. It's false. Microsoft did not make the Windows OS free. In order to compete with Android, Microsoft is going to offer Windows 8.1, its least popular product, available free to manufacturers of devices with screens less than 9 inches measured diagonally. Consumers will still have to buy all versions of Windows at the usual retail prices.

The title is the worst kind of linkbait.
