    The goal, really, is to cut the crud out of Windows to create a more Linux-like experience.

    but

    for powerful developer hardware with 64GB of RAM and gobs of memory bandwidth.

    ???

      They probably try to keep the normal users out, so that their spy-ware infested normal version is still the default for most of the users.

      Either that or they didn’t remove the crud but replaced it with AI crud that needs the RAM.

      If their idea of distraction-free requires 64GB of RAM, they’re pretty lost as a company.

      I don’t get it either.

      If they said “requires a beefy dGPU or one of the handful of high-bandwidth APUs” that feels like it would make more sense than just 64G RAM. I thought most models weren’t optimized to run on a CPU even with gobs of RAM.

      And plenty of firms don’t ship their devs 64G machines, especially in ghe current RAM crunch. Mine sent me a 16G machine in like 2023 and only replaced it with 32 on request because Win11+Docker were heavier than the old Win10/external server workflow.
