> If Microsoft has money to invest in AI models, they could sure fix Windows 11 which I assume is one of their core products.

On the other hand, what's the return on investment for making Windows 11 better? Your laptop came with Windows 11. Most laptops that come with Windows can't not come with Windows (that is, most laptops are only available in SKUs that ship with Windows).

Windows OS is what keeps most users in Microsoft's ecosystem.

I am still on Windows as some software I need to use aren't on Linux.

I am waiting for the day that I can get rid of Windows completely.

When I do that what Microsoft product do you think I will still use ? Office ? Azure ? Copilot ? :)) Outlook ?

No MSFT product ever!

Will I ever recommended Microsoft's products to my clients - Never

Sure, Microsoft has a grip on Enterprise.

Let's see how long that lasts if Windows keeps going downhill.

Assume a hypothetical future where all that software gets ported to Linux. How much better would Windows have to get for you to keep using it?

I suspect they've done the math and realize that the slow trickle of users leaving would cost too much time and effort to retain.
