minus-squaremech@feddit.orgOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10arrow-down3·edit-27 hours agoHere are some Windows 12 rumors (pulled from one of the biggest German-language tech news sites citing insider information) https://www.computerbild.de/artikel/cb-News-Windows-12-Geruechte-Release-Systemanforderungen-Download-2025-33395891.html It won’t come out this year, release may be end of next year at the absolute earliest. It will require PCs with a Neural Processing Unit that can handle more than 40 billion TOPS, 8GB RAM minimum, 16 recommended. It may eventually require an ARM-based “Copilot PC”, a new device class released last year. It will be modular, with a core OS and additional modules depending on edition, licensing, hardware and use case. It may have a read-only system partition. It will be focussed on AI and cloud integration, heavily leaning towards OS as a service. It will be free to install as an upgrade, with a monthly subscription to run it.
