    I don’t think MS is out of touch with what the customer wants, I think they just stopped listening.

    The fact is nobody is asking for this stuff.

    I think the hope is that they build it anyway and then people will use/want it. AI is the big buzzword of the decade, just like ‘cloud’ was the big buzzword of last decade.

        A nice thought.
        Unfortunately the only ones who switch will be people 1. Know that it is even possible to switch/that they have an option to switch, and 2. Have the technical knowledge to back up their data, then download and install Linux, that 3. Don’t have to run Windows for other reasons and/or haven’t already switched.

        Unfortunately with all three qualifiers you aren’t left with a giant number. Certainly no mass exodus.
