Yeah, please do that. It will be great!

Valve moves SteamOS to the desktop... The only trick would be getting corporate buy in.

I just can't see people standing for ads in their os at best and paying a continual fee at worst.

Remember the rumors over 10 years ago that Windows 8 was going to be a subscription OS?

This is what happens when one part of their business (Game Pass) does well and they want to translate that success to other operations. What they don’t realize is that Windows is less a product and more a service, and you can’t make money on services. Not for long, anyway.

So is business moving to M365 windows lics no doubt. It's been on the cards for a while.

Since when has windows 11 been deprecated? After windows 7 I switched to Linux and all I hear is new windows is around the corner and even worse! How does this company even keep customers, when all they do is upgrade their windows?!

And they'll still steal all your data and spy on everything you do!

they've been wanting to do a subscription windows since they did some limited testing of the concept back with win7.

Anyone got any good reccs for Linux? Preferably something that plays nicely with both laptop and desktop.
