Windows 365 is Microsoft’s cloud-based operating system that lets you connect to your PC from anywhere in the world with an Internet connection. All you need is a physical device that you can use as a window into your cloud PC and you are good to go. Getting your head around using a PC in the cloud can take some time. It reminds us of the first time we saw the movie The Matrix. In other words, it can be a bit of a mind trip. You are using a physical computer, and then connecting to your cloud PC, and then using your physical computer just like it is your cloud PC. But your cloud PC lives and runs in the cloud, and your physical computer, any physical computer, is just something real you use to connect to your cloud PC and get work done. Like we said, it can take some time to get your head around it.
