What in the name is the flying spaghetti monster is Windows 365? An even less private version of windows that won't work is you don't have internet?
The OS is fully running on the cloud. You will be given a VM. Everything stays there. You may have to take permission to download a file from the VM onto your local device. You don't get any choice about telemetry.
Am I interpreting this wrong, or do the specs look like absolute crap? I would expect a thin client would need hardware this good:
That starts at $28 a month.
