    I believe they knew they’re losing the pc market. They dismantled windows team like 6 months ago.

    Edit: I could not find a source.

      Maybe the home PC market, but they havent cared about that segment in a long time.

            Very good. If it all goes up in flames nobody will have a copy and nothing of value will be lost.

        I admit it that I couldn’t find a source.

        I remember reading an article posted here on lemmy around the time Asha Sharma shared her email to all Xbox employees about job cuts taking about how Microsoft focused on cloud and AI to the point they move around 4k engineers working as Windows team to other teams.

      Losing to who? Use any office PC anywhere and it’s almost guaranteed to be a Windows PC.

        Actually what’s funny is now that companies are using Active Directory and on prem infrastructure like file servers and whatnot less and less, I’ve seen a big resurgence in MacBooks in the enterprise space.
