At this point I'll take a version of Windows X (whatever the latest is when you read this, now or ten years from now) that has all the bloat removed, or is easily removable, no ads of any kind for any Microsoft apps or services, call it Windows for Professionals, or Windows for Devs. Whatever, add a +$200 price tag to it, and I'll pay you Microsoft more money, to maintain less software (since you'd have to remove more OS specific things), just guarantee LTS for 20 years after release. No forced updates, but updates should be on a predictable schedule and security updates should be highlighted as such.
