Microsoft should just hand windows over to a non-profit, goverment or some different non-commercial entity.
They aren't making any money from it, they don't care about copyright infringement either like here lithuanian feds went after some skiddies for being skiddies not for 'illegal activation of windows'.
It's not even an open secret at this point, it's just a common fact everyone is aware of.

No, what they should do is making it open source, including old versions. First because people will work for free on it and do a waaaaaayyyyy better job than their fucking retarded "devs". Second because this way we will basically have a Win7 windows distribution compatible with new software and hardware.

XP's source code has been out for years and virtually nothing of any real value/impact has come out of it.

Hardware specifically requires driver source code, not system source code, and that's on the hardware manufacturers not Micropozz.

>>107714636
They actually do, but only from professional/enterprise releases, plus its still important part of their ecosystem thanks to which they hold a tight grip over almost everyone who does something serious on their computer.
>>107714870
>and do it way better
hell no, they will not. Troonix is the best example of that.
>>107714917
OpenXP project aims to bring many improvements to XP and even bright it to CPU architectures other than x86.

Nobody wants to touch that shit because then you can't work on projects like wine anymore and it's illegal. People already tried with the leaked NT4 sources and got shut down by MS.

Normie talk. Anybody can develop this anonymously, but nobody really cares enough to do it.

I guess that people behind OpenXP are not scared pussy ass faggots like you then. They are still there and doing well. Kill yourself tranny demoralizer.

Is it based on XP SP3 without security updates? The fuck do you wan to do with that?

Any serious collaboration will get shut down. Also, the leaked code was not in good condition. It would be much different if it was legally released, and a proper stable version rather than some broken mess.

security is a meme if you are not retarded. Your computer is secure enough already thanks to NAT or CGNAT. The rest of your opsec is just all about not downloading malicious executables from the internet like an idiot. Entire "muh security" is just fear-mongering made up by linux trannies to groom people into transitioning to troonix and succumbing to their delusions.
>>107715147
OpenXP literally exists and is doing well, you demoralizing tranny faggot. You are a faggot, you are ugly, kill yourself.

>>107715291
In case you haven't noticed, trannies hijacked linux community and are very hostile towards legacy windows community, as it keeps people away from being groomed and mutilated. This is not a conspiracy.
>>
>>107715320
I know it's true because you had to clarify that it wasn't a conspiracy!

>>107715333
contrary to popular belief, linux trannies know much less about technology that they think they know. Thats why they always brag about getting magic internet aids after connecting old software to the internet for example (unless they lie of course). You are not a tech-savvy person just because you can follow a random pajeet tutorial on how to use bash or configure your setup.

This is a myth that hasn't been factual for over ten years. Modern microsoft is a cloud computing company first and foremost

they're making loads of money from it, more than ever. they just changed who the customer was

This is stagnation, a dead weigth in corporate world. No they do not in fact make any significant revenue with end-user products anymore
