Hi, this is Bill Sikkens, host of User

here on The Answer

with this week's Tech Wednesday.

3

00:00:06,375 --> 00:00:09,750

Rumors are flying around

that there is a new version

4

00:00:09,750 --> 00:00:13,166

of Windows on the horizon

known as Windows 12.

5

00:00:13,666 --> 00:00:16,375

And while this may not be a unique

naming campaign

6

00:00:16,375 --> 00:00:19,791

for these things lately,

it does show that there is plans

7

00:00:19,791 --> 00:00:24,291

to push out another version of the Windows

operating system after Windows 11.

8

00:00:24,708 --> 00:00:28,666

Some of the rumors that have been

discussed include the idea of this being

9

00:00:28,708 --> 00:00:33,416

a subscription operating system, whereby

maybe you have to pay a monthly fee

10

00:00:33,416 --> 00:00:36,625

to be able to use your computer,

or maybe certain features of it,

11

00:00:37,083 --> 00:00:40,375

and some of the other things that they're

talking about is that this may even bring

12

00:00:40,375 --> 00:00:44,458

in stricter requirements

for what hardware it's able to run on.

13

00:00:44,500 --> 00:00:46,375

So are we going to see

a whole bunch of hardware

14

00:00:46,375 --> 00:00:50,250

going to e-waste again, like we did

between Windows 10 and Windows 11

15

00:00:50,833 --> 00:00:54,291

this Saturday here on User Friendly 2.0,

we're going to deep dive into the rumors,

16

00:00:54,291 --> 00:00:56,375

see what's fact and what's not.
