Yes. I have talked to three people who are “retail sales” for MS and all I have heard is “We can’t sell Win11 Enterprise”

I want to buy between 5 and 200 EULs for servers and they can’t figure out how to sell it. So for now Hex Edit terminal server DLL cause end users are retarded, as is MS.

Them Xbox numbers are as pathetic as ever. Hardware dropped yet again and the CoD GP boost didn't last enough to appear in this quarter. GP subs are more expensive than last year. Also third to last division in revenue growth.

All factored in the best case scenario is stagnation after spending $70B.
