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.
Not if you’re an enterprise. I worked at a company where 80% of our workers (so over 2000) were on thin clients, even remotely. We could manage and upgrade the entire fleet easily from a single point. Ran the servers in house but were able to switch a portion to the cloud if we needed. We were doing that 20+ years ago.
I might have skipped that cycle. Local always.
If you skipped the cycle of VDI, consider yourself lucky lol
