#2The AI PC marketing campaign as of now is not good. What exactly is an AI PC?
Many consumers are still uneasy with some AI use and just tagging this label onto a laptop doenst look to be increasing mindshare or moving units.

#6So wait are people going to take this as the last chance to get a non-AI-infected computer? Or is the projection here that people are going to switch away from 10 because it’s going EOL?
I don’t really think official support means much, I mean Windows is basically insecure as a platform whether or not it is getting patches, so who cares really? And I’d rather be infected by classic dumb viruses than Microsoft’s first party AI enhanced malware.

It's a PC that has a decent NPU. By next year every PC will be an AI PC so it won't really matter.
