My 10 year prediction - Microsoft does a full transition to a services company:

  • Basic Windows is free, even for OEMs
  • Windows Professional becomes a subscription thing, maybe you get it as part of your Azure AD sub
  • Things like Recall or not having ads are extra subscriptions

There were already rumors halfway between 10 and the release of 11 that they wanted to do it that way, making 10 the last "standalone" release version
