Microsoft sees 2024 as the year of the artificial intelligence personal computer. A new key on Surface PCs and other devices might help.

      Probably through licensing agreements with PC retailers.

      But you can also just decide not to buy them.

          There’s always the IBM Model M or, if you prefer USB, there are remakes with it.

          Umm, it’s just a keycap. You can map the key to whatever you want.

            agreed, however it defeats the point that its going to be optional if they really decide to do it.

      Microsoft is a monopoly. Stallman was right, as usual in software

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
