Rumor: Microsoft Plans to Make Affordable PC Windows 11 With Ads!

Recently, there is interesting news, reported from WinBuzzerMicrosoft seems to have posted a job list for Principal Software Engineer Managerwhich in its initial version explicitly described that Microsoft was trying to build a low-cost PC model that was supported by advertising and subscription plans.

Interestingly, although the specific words regarding this have been removed, the job listing still clearly emphasizes the cloud- and web-first solutions which speaks of a “mission to push cloud firsts to Windows”. Below are job descriptions that Microsoft offers.

“Are you passionate about shaping the future of personal computing? Do you have the passion and experience to build and lead a new engineering team to explore Web and cloud experiences on Windows?, The Windows Incubation team is chartered to explore new concepts for Windows in a cloud- and web-first world.

Regarding this cheap PC device, maybe this will later be related to Windows 365 which users can get on a subscription basis, and it seems that Windows 365 will be the gateway to this cheap PC that Microsoft is referring to.

Well of course this is still a rumor, because there is still no official news from Microsoft, but if so, of course this will be a bit of a controversy among users, especially if it turns out that this cheap PC will contain ads in it.

Let’s see how this rumor develops in the future.
