you don't know what it costs to license Windows, nobody but the OEMs know. There are costs associated with Android too, it's not like they just download it and slap it on a device.
OEMs don't like Google buying Motorola and building the Nexus. Apple has shown them they'd go after them for every minute thing they can score a point on (and have the war chest to do it) so we're still yet to see how things would shake out
