Dell and Asus have announced new mini PCs intended for use with Windows 365. These systems will not power themselves, but will simply allow users to operate Windows running in the cloud.
Congratulations. My home internet was down the whole day yesterday. My power goes out at least once or twice per month due to the current nature of the power line structure. I live in Europe.
And yet, most consumers use laptops with build in batteries. A power outage doesn’t stop them dead most of the time. It will for Windows 365 users. You’re doing an awful lot of sugar coating for someone that claims to be against this product.
I can’t work on a laptop. Might as well just use a shitty tablet instead. I’ll use a desktop PC, thank you very much.
Also, in the last 20 years I have experienced 2 power outages. One took about 3 hours to fix, which was spooky but also very cool, the other was in January this year and lasted for about 30 minutes. It’s really not a problem.
I am with you on not using a laptop, but as I said, the majority of people do so. My experience is quite different. In the last 20 years I tend to have several power outages a year, and I have lived in multiple cities/states. My home is filled with excessive battery backups because of this and are fine unless the outages exceed a few hours, which annoyingly the outages in my new home/area tend to do (the longest was nearly two days :( ).

Yeah, that’s not very typical, I’d like to make that point.
I live in (Eastern) Europe.
This product is aimed at people who live in places with reliable infra. (no offense intended)
Name a single country with no power outages
You do realise power outages affect regular PC users and cloud PC users all the same.
