Microsoft famously keeps trying, and often the product initially looks like a failure until the third iteration is the one that clicks. (Windows 3.0, Surface 3, Windows NT's third version which was branded "NT 4.0"...)
Windows RT was about as popular as Windows 1.0. I think Microsoft views the upcoming ARM-based "Cloud Windows" (whatever the branding is going to be) as the second iteration of this idea, and hopes to really gain traction a few years later.
