Windows 10 will be the final Windows version as we know it - going to the cloud

Interesting article- After Windows 10, Windows will be running on the cloud. Personally I don't think this is a good idea, but if and when it is implemented we will find out how fast it will get adopted.

I think MS has a good position going for them. They are the business powerhouse that almost every business application is created for. That alone means most people will stick with MS and put up with whatever changes they make simply because they have no alternatives that are practical/effective.

I agree 100%. A business losing microsoft outlook, excel, word or powerpoint. OMG business would stop.

Yes, they would, the transition time to another OS in our fast moving business world would be devastating. I am sure MS is in a good position.

My only point is, every single time they make a move, everybody gripes, goans and when it is over, we get spit out in the same point that we went in.

Consumer based OS on cloud really shouldn't be even talked about until widespread, unlimited internet is available to majority of internet capable populations today.

Here in India, I can't even think about how a cloud-based consumer OS will work. I can't even get netflix here without choppy bitrate and hitting the data caps within days. There's regions in the U.S. I know which have to deal with similar issues.
