       Honestly I find the idea of rich people paying a subscription for Windows in a thin client laptop like the weirdest kind of self-own (by owning nothing)

       "Pay more for even less" is: certainly something

       Also, this is yet another clue that I'm in the right direction with my ideas, by coming up with ideas that align, except for the part where they're not stupidly extractive

       @xerz why would it be "rich people"? I'd presume this would be best for inexpensive hardware and thus primarily used by schools and low-income people. Rich people buy Macs.

       @schizanon I don't expect this to be any less than $10/month for essentially no computing power while requiring a fast connection to operate. A $100-200 computer will do the same.

       @xerz $10 a month sounds a lot cheaper than $100 to someone who shops at Wal-Mart and can't do math

       @schizanon I mean, yeah they could pull off something akin to the Telly or to Chromecasts or Amazon stuff, where the entry price is basically next to zero. Most people need to be smarter than that with their wages, though.
