[edit] Rationale

The Microsoft Windows logo - used in the main article and in other articles about the software itself
Not likely to cause any financial damage to Microsoft
A logo is very safe territory
Wikipedia is a non-profit organisation, downstream providers who are not non-profit will need to consider whether they will take the risk in using this image
Clearly used for educational use to illustrate the Microsoft Windows logo
