A few days ago, Davuluri shared his excitement about it on his official X handle. He seemed very eager to reveal what the company has in mind at the upcoming Ignite event regarding the agentic OS plans.

Unfortunately for Microsoft and Davuluri, the response has been overwhelmingly negative, so much so that the comments on that X post have now been disabled.

Made me laugh. :)

This honestly isn't my experience.

A couple years ago now, I went to install Windows 10 on a PC. It got partway through the install process, and then failed with an "Error 0x76A421B3E7291A" or something. Completely opaque, like the damn thing spat out a memory pointer as the only clue. Installing Linux Mint on the same machine threw an error, "Unable to complete installation due to BIOS TBS error. Check TBS BIOS settings and try again. For more information, see this wiki page" and it gave a clickable link, because this is running in a live environment and has a functioning copy of Firefox installed, and it gave a QR code so the page could be easily pulled up on a mobile device.

Windows is not inherently more user friendly.
