"Fluffy" Windows
Microsoft Promises New, Fluffier Version of Windows
What does that exactly mean? Does that mean that my HD would have no OS what so ever and that when I log into my computer I'm actually logging into a server located somewhere far off.
So if the server crashes or gets hacked, does my desktop become a giant paper weight until the problem gets fixed?
Pros, cons?
Re: "Fluffy" Windows
If the server is hacked, no OS for the masses. I don't see any benefit of it.

Sounds like they want your PC to become a tarted-up thin-client. All your data belongs to Micro$oft, that kind of thing. While it would do wonders for preventing piracy, it would probably be the final push for a Linux takeover.

Meanwhile, the OS that would not die gets another six months of official life.
Re: "Fluffy" Windows
Why did they even invest that time and money on Vista when "fluffy" windows (or Win 7) is in the works and XP, as the article in the above post states, is still alive and apprently doing well.
