This is stupid. Who on earth would want to pay a subscription for a PC when they still need to buy one to stream the OS? I see the value proposition, but it’s only as fast (and expensive) as your internet speed. - Businesses and consumers could buy less expensive hardware, and simply pay $x/month for access. - IT could remotely troubleshoot - Fewer hardware issues - A $10/month subscription would last longer than a $1200 laptop for most consumers. - MS handles all software updates, stores all your personal data, has complete control of hardware and software. - Some sort of device is still required, how does it respond to input from a keyboard, mouse, controller, etc? How do USBs, Raspberry Pi’s, External storage devices work? - You still need a screen. I could see this being an app on smart TVs and mobile devices. (The form-factor of a powerful PC is smaller because of the streaming aspect) - Internet is still relatively slow, every input would feel laggy and unresponsive. - Anyone can guess your username/pwd and gain access to your PC. - Hackers now have a single target. - If Microsoft’s servers ever go down, you can’t use your PC at all. - You are subject to any future government regulations with no choice to opt out. - You lose access to everything if your subscription expires. - MS has an unprecedented level of access to data that will inevitably be used for advertising. - MS becomes your ISP and can filter traffic however they want.
