Windows 11 keeps trying to install different stuff, notifying you about how great edge is, requires new hardware, and more. Windows 12 is rumored to be cloud only with a subscription?

What will do you?

    2 things: First, Windows 12 being subscription only has been “debunked” multiple times, as the source for the article that shouted that from the rooftops was code for Windows 11 - which MS is currently working to have a subscription cloud-based version of for enterprise customers. Second, MS is 100% working on and going to launch cloud based Windows for enterprise customers “soon”. It can be largely cloud based, and all that has to be installed local is instructions for how to log in and access the cloud during boot, and likely won’t be able to do anything itself if the internet is disconnected.

      Welcome back to the age of thin clients and terminals, only this time the mainframe is in someone else’s closet.
