I just had this crazy idea... stay with me... how about... make Windows 11 or 12 or what version is the latest who know what version is by now... make it better by removing the shit, games, idiotic programs like make notepad with AI and just fix all the stupid bugs that cost time to people every single day? How about that?

And why not, make Office and Teams to work properly, and I don't even update my Arch everyday... why does Edge and Teams have 3 updates a day?

good for Enterprise tier businesses, but honestly everyone else should just switch to Linux

Well, it looks to me like Microsoft is offering Sunrays,[0] where your client is the "Microsoft App". A Sunray is/was the ultimate "cloud computing" device.

For 10 days, though. No mention in the announcement (From Silliman ) of data migration.

> End users can click to connect securely and be redirected to a full desktop environment with their organization's resources.

Which could be a "big deal"

Lots of connections to be made, securely.

Very seriously though, I led (performed) the deployment for an entire school district of Sunrays, but which were used only via Citrix to run apps on windows servers. (i.e. School Information System, etc) Why Citrix and not vnc? Well, someone else decided that.

Shades of Scott McNealy and his "dial tone".

VirtualBox [1] was acquired by Sun in 2008, so no chance at the time of running the windows software on the sun servers that served the Sunrays.
