Microsoft insisted that Win10 was their last Windows OS; that it would be the current OS, and continue to receive updates, in perpetuity. I for one have relied on that declaration.

Doesn't that count as deceptive marketing? I mean, the timespan between Win10 and Win11 is comparable to the timespan between Win8 and Win10. Does Microsoft lack a corporate memory? Have they said anything about this discrepancy between their forward-looking announcements and their actual behaviour?

Do they think it doesn't matter what BS they spin to their prospective customers?
