They still ship their laptops with the Copilot key. Once that is removed then their statement will follow their actions.

I'd be surprised if Microsoft would sell them Windows licenses or would work with them on drivers if they don't put the Copilot key on the keyboard.

What is with Microsoft and demanding a key for every new thing they come up with?

When had Microsoft done this before? For Cortana maybe? I can't recall them ever mandating dedicated physical keys for anything other than the Windows key, but that was over 30 years ago and I assume that's not what you're talking about.

		Ah, my memory was off - it was PC manufacturers who kept adding more and weird keys (media keys, for example). All I remember is having all sorts of fun trying to get those keys to work at all in Linux; they often were insanely setup and dependent on windows drivers (some would send a combination keystroke, some wouldn't work unless polled, etc).
