Oh no, Microsoft made an official thin client.

I feel bad for all of the world's employees who are going to get their real PCs taken away by the IT department and replaced with a shitty streaming box which connects to some garbage Windows 365 instance with 4GB of RAM.

Seems to be some very tiny box, probably just contains some smartphone ARM SoC.

Wonder how long it'll take until some nerd breaks the software open and manages to plug one into the fediverse

Honestly the most insulting part is that it's $349.

The thing requires a fucking subscription to Windows 365, starting at $32/month. They couldn't at least have subsidized the thing a little? It probably contains chinese whitelabel smartTV-tier hardware at best.

@getimiskon solaris hotdesking is still one of the coolest things.

even though there were citrix and horizon capable thin clients which claimed similar features, they were slow as shit to connect in reality
