Other than the licensing cost, Windows Server is the absolute perfect Windows. No crapware, no marketing. I'd love to use it at home and on my laptop. But, you know, licensing cost.
MLID said that Intel is losing money on every ARC card they sell, because their BoM cost is higher than sale price. So they are intentionally producing very, very low quantity - just enough to avoid investor lawsuits. The lawsuit being for announcing a product to investors and then never...
