One comment:

Supply and demand
Dear Microsoft,
I demand you supply something I actually want
I don't want cloud, or others poking around in my data
I don't want fingerprints all over my screen
I can type faster and more accurately on a keyboard, than I can with touch or speech
I don't want one device that does everything, I want one device that does each job well, not all of them badly
I don't want to do email on my games console, play games on my PC or cut code on my phone
My screen is not your advertising space
You can keep Windows 8 and 10, try to understand why Windows XP and 7 were successful
I will run what I want on my equipment, even if it's something that competes with your products - secure boot, etc
It's ok to say you got it wrong
Your choice is to start listening, or to you can continue the current trip to the junk pile
I've already moved on, but you might be able to keep other customers
Regards - Previously long term, now ex-customer
