I’m not entirely a fan the idea of having my OS run somewhere other than my own computer, unless it’s like a remote lab I use for specific tasks. Like if I could use Linux, and just use this for my classes that run Windows exclusive software, then I’d maybe use it. Otherwise I think it’s a bit weird to have your whole computer basically be in the cloud.
A point where could be good, is being able to work from home more easily, I mean I’ve applied to some companies where I could only work using their computers, so If I can work from home with this. But I don’t really understand why they need it
If it wasn’t clear from the article, that’s already a thing. They can even set up your software for you. I can see how it would make managing hardware in lots of different places a lot easier.
I really don’t see any benefit to it (for users) for home use. It’s certainly an easy way to make Windows a subscription service and charge you for storage. It also pretty much wipes out any data privacy on your devices.

With the state of internet speeds in the US? No. This won’t work.
