Microsoft is losing this particular market, but they don't seem to care. I would pay good money for a Windows version that had a more professional and consistent interface (Win 2K comes to mind, but Win 7 interface was still OK) no advertisement inside the OS, no telemetry, automatic update notification but manual installation, no unexplained HDD usage when idle that goes away as soon as I open the system monitor, WSL support. Closest thing is LTSC but it is discouraged and hard to legally buy. Linux can do all of this. Compatibility with games is good enough and better in some edge cases. KVM performance running a VM is good enough for running MS Office for work, and still a better experience than in bare metal as you can limit core usage and the computer will run cooler and use less power.
