Total BS. They make the OS. They make the applications. And like IBM with the mainframe, they're forcing hardware and OS upgrades. When I managed thousands of systems, and we concurrently operated legacy applications, this was a pain.

They always extended support for enterprise customers, but still. It looks like now they also have a offering to support end users with an additional fee.

@verge They better keep pushing updates for the 2024 1 PC purchase version (no non subscription one), it just came out and shipped on Windows 10.
Otherwise it's straight up robbery.

@verge What about sustainability and the 60% perfectly usable computers that will be thrown away?
Yeah thought as much, big tech never actually cared about that.
