Around 25 years ago, my hardware guy and I read a roadmap from microsoft. The bottom line was, they wanted to move back to a thin client model. They told everyone what they were going to do. You don't have to imagine, they told everyone 25 years ago that this is what is coming. You will be paying monthly.
I remember this too, but can't seem to find it.
It was called the October document, Halloween document, or something like that.
