    I could see a subscription model for windows as well but one of the biggest problem would be OEM installs in laptops as even the normies would think twice about buying a new device that comes with subscription built in. Maybe they would lock some features behind payment and make the locked down version free or those snakes will figure something even worse.

      They’ve already done that previously, years ago I had a ‘notebook’ with a version of Windows 7 where all options were ridiculously limited unless you upgraded. Would never have bought the thing if I’d known.
