Windows 11

When?

10 is a failure that needed to be pushed into people throats to be something.
And even then fails at it.

They will base on Linux and ship a closed source distro. NT is a legacy

>implying we will get Windows 9/11

Kill yourself, you disgusting pedophile

>Microsoft confirms there will be no Windows 11

They will introduce a new family of OS.

NT is a superior kernel to Linux happy to help

Hopefully never
Windows is terrible and should be discontinued

I've never understood this "microsoft is gonna switch to the linux kernel" meme.
Why the fuck would they do that?
The NT architecture is pretty awesome, they've spent time turning it modular like unix, and if they any linux and/or unix apps users might need have been taken care of by porting that subsystem theyve been working on.

Yeah, they don't gonna fall for GPL, it's gonna be FreeBSD kernel.

never

they learned their lesson having so much trouble getting people to switch from even XP, let alone windows 7.

windows 10 is going to just keep getting updates until we're all using quantum computing chips implanted in our brains

>Add optional telemetry to 10 like with 8.1
>Let user control updates
>Everyone would have upgraded to W10 since day one

It wasn't that hard.

Kill yourself, shit for brains.

But having telemetry optional might mean that some people won't participate, and that's not acceptable.
And if you can change things, then you'd have to actually get your shit working correctly, and cheap kludges won't work for everyone.

Thank you for doing the needful, kind sir.

Fuck I hate that fucking "do the needful" phrase.

I agree with the "NT is good" but they should drop Win32 if they want to make Windows really good. If they could drop DOS for NT they can replace Win32 for something newer and well done. No backwards compatibility = less bugs.

Telemetry? Mandatory for Insiders, Non opt-out (only "basic" level, just like 10) for Home users and fully optional for Pro and Enterprise editions(so business can trust again in Windows)

Yet support ends in 2025...

Windows will die and it will be for the better.

>No backwards compatibility = less bugs.

Also means no marketshare. Windows is not a bad platform per se., but inertia is the main reason why it has the marketshare it does in 2017

Telemetry is optional in Enterprise editions afaik

I know. But the Pro sditions should also have the "privilege"(?) to opt-out of telemetry. Most business-grade computers come with Pro editions and bundling telemetry only scares customers.

OS X also did break backwards compatibility and it was successful.

Most business-grade computers will be wiped once IT gets their hands on them and a standard, universal company image deployed to it.

True: for small businesses Pro will be used, as they'll use whatever it arrives with. But a small business probably isn't going to give a shit about telemetry.

>OS X also did break backwards compatibility and it was successful

However,
* Apple frequently breaks applications with major OS updates, and their developer community is used to that;
* The _overwhelming_ majority of Mac OS users are consumers, not businesses
* And of those consumers, most aren't doing anything much more intensive than Facebook and MS Word

Apple breaking compatibility is not universally liked. It's more that most consumers don't notice it. Apple produces consumer machines - not to imply it's a bad thing - but Microsoft has to cater to them AND businesses.

You've never had to support OS X, have you?
>Hey user, the new software we need requires 10.10 but we have 10.8
>OK, this shouldn't be too hard
>All right, it worked
>Oh fuck half of your other programs now require paid upgrades to new compatible versions and won't even attempt to start

I guess it's still "successful", but man it sucks when compatibility is dropped for no discernible reason.
