How is link bait when it never mentions Linux? It seems like hardware lockdown of windows versions.
1) Windows 7&8 will work on new processors, just like windows XP and 1.0 will. They just won't be updated to use, say, a new instruction set.
2) Windows 10 will in fact get these updates.
3) This won't apply to enterprise customers for 18 months
The article does NOT say:
That future intel processors will only run windows, or only windows 10, or anything remotely of that nature. This is microsoft doing something, not intel and/or AMD.
2. Linux is not Windows 10.
3. Therefore, new processors will not work with Linux. QED.
Except that is incorrect.
(Besides the fact that the processors with work with 7/8 too.)
