The more this quote ages like milk, the more baffled I am that Microsoft bothered saying this. Clearly the statement in general is a lie, but they also made the specific promises that they then specifically broke.
It would have been better if Microsoft never acknowledged the issues to begin with. Why look like an ass to your customers, including business ones?!
So pulling all the AI in the os and putting it into one dedicated browser and client isn't an improvement?
That's fine because RAM is cheap, right...?
It's ok, Linux is cheap. In fact, it's free.
I assumed it would be a little more RAM, not a tenfold increase.
Windows 12 - Minimum Ram Requirement 36gb. Will sunset windows 11 at tend of 2026 with no more updates.
P.S. Buy our Microslop branded ram at these exorbitant prices!
nice… all those nails für the coffin lately
