Microsoft might want to be making Windows 12 a subscription OS, suggests leak

I think if it came down to a subscription model for Windows, my average joe friends would just do their email and web surfing on their phones, tablets, etc. They would give up on laptops or desktops.

Exactly. Apple & Android will cash in.

No, not 12 yet. I do like 11 but as usual with Windows since I started with MS-DOS/Win3.1 back in '92 and retiring in '94 then working in a shop and building computers, the changes can be a bit daunting but most times everything is still available, just has to be located. I've a number of clients [small town] and most are on 10 with a few on 11.

Oh, ok! I kinda thought that's what you meant, but wasn't sure.......... then thought maybe you're on the Canary channel, or something and getting glimpses of 12.

Okay, This is enough. Kubuntu for me it is. Hopefully I can just use a VM for the software that doesn't run on Linux. Even AMD stuff runs better in Linux than on Windows.

Just dare to do this Microsoft, and I just drop this lame excuse of an OS.

There is a way to run Windows programs on Linux just are there is a way to run Windows programs on Macintosh, some pages about Linux:

run windows programs on linux at DuckDuckGo

DuckDuckGo. Privacy, Simplified.

Kubuntu looks pretty good, comes from Ubuntu, and there is Lubuntu and Xubuntu.

No chance I would purchase a subscription to any version of Windows. I am not sure I can even fathom who they would test without some sort of public ISO. I'll try to keep my only VM of Windows Canary - it is a QEMU/KVM image.

Got a Linux Voyager Live USB Thumb drive created today and booted on an HP Notebook as a diagnostic for a screen issue in Windows. Looks pretty good but didn't care for the mouse pointer, maybe a better choice if actually installed. I usually use Mint on a Desktop.

We had all these subscription rumours before Windows 10 came out aswell.

The NeoWin article referenced in the OP now carries the notice
NeoWin said:
October 6 Update: A newly published report has clarified that the discovered code bits are not related to Windows "12." Also, the next-gen Windows version will not require a subscription.

Perhaps we should confine our fretting to more important issues such as the almost universal disappearance of coconut ring biscuits.

Coconut cookies

Mike,

You have mistranslated the term.

These are coconut ring biscuits.
Coconut Rings - Asda
Jam is not involved.
They have been out of stock for over two years. Sainsburys do not stock them or even list them any more. Nor does Tesco.


Sorrowfully yours,
Denis

Yeah, Walmart has them. But I like the ones with jam.
Not for the jam mind you, but for the cookies themselves.
They are fluffy and soft. And taste seriously coconut-y. :-)




They're sort of like fresh coconut... bread.

You can get them without jam too...

Stigg,

Thanks for posting a link to that very level-headed article.
Its explanation also reassures me that I am not going to have to pay every year for my dictionary just because I found the word subscription in it.


All the best,
Denis
