i think they will. or worse yet they can make it without bios at all just device tree and all that garbage that phones do. then make it subsction based,filled with ai,cloud streamed only. no apps outside store. but thats too much orwellian stuff for now,i think what will happen is the locking bios thing for now.

what do you think?

    Adding to this, it has already started happening on phones in the form of propreitary carrier locked devices being artificially cheaper than normal phones that you don’t even “own”, they are going for the ultra budget range first, then climb up from there, it will take a while to jump to computers but I absolutely see no reason for it to not start happening, after all the majority of users use Windows anyways, it can spread slowly.
