Words can't express how much I don't want this.
The article mentions this is aimed at enterprises who are already probably doing something like this with vmware ESXi
Doubt it'll ever catch on with anything except maybe the largest of orgs. You can just procure office task ready machines so cheaply these days, and Windows 365 is like $45/user/month. Far more than what we pay for windows licensing, user Cals, and office licensing all combined.
Yep for managing "thin clients" I'd been expecting something like this someday.
