If this happens, will it be a mass exodus to Linux/Mac? Or will people just live with it? The fact that the Steam Deck has shown great promise in playing games on Linux has made me reconsider Windows yet again.

I agree with most of your comment, but I bet Microsoft will what do whatever the market says will be most profitable, so nothing is off the table.
Yep, you’re absolutely right. I think my main point is that switching to only offering a cloud-streamed OS as their only offering would kill off a massive market where they have market dominance (enterprise desktops). It doesn’t make business sense for them to leave that market. If the demands of that market change, then you’re right – they’re going to do whatever is most profitable. But we’re nowhere near there yet.
