    To be honest, I think you are the one lying to yourself here. From the linked report:

    Productivity and Business Processes $37,847 14%

    Intelligent Cloud $39,306 32%

    More Personal Computing $12,854 (4)%

    “(4)” equals “-4”.

    Even MS isn’t using windows exclusively. And they don’t care, as the long term scenario they are aiming for, is, that everybody only uses a minimal system and rents compute in the cloud. That’s, where the money is for them. I am quite sure, they don’t give a single eff, what those devices are using as an OS. It won’t be win 11 for sure.

    So everything Windows as we know it, is what’s consumer GPUs are to Nvidia.

      A real life example, I know a company whose low level employees use a Dell mini pc with a custom OS whose only job is to RDP into Citrix. All the data and compute is on the cloud.
