Now, instead of managing local Windows installations on pricey notebooks, IT folks can get by with simpler hardware that taps into a scalable cloud. Windows 365 likely isn't going to mean much for most consumers, but it could be life-changing for IT departments and small businesses. (Unfortunately, we don't yet know how much the service is going to cost, but Microsoft says it will reveal final pricing on August 1st.) You just need to head to when it launches on August 2nd (that domain isn't yet live), choose a virtual machine configuration, and you'll be up and running.
It builds on Microsoft's Azure Virtual Desktop service, which lets tech-savvy folks also spin up their own virtual PCs, but it makes the entire process of managing a Windows installation in a far-off server far simpler. While Windows 365 doesn't come completely out of nowhere - rumors about some kind of Microsoft cloud PC effort have been swirling for months - its full scope is still surprising.
