Is W10 going to be Microsofts last OS, or simply the last OS called 'Windows' ? There is a big difference in the two.
It would be unrealistic to expect any OS to be infinitely expandable and updateable if only because there will be hardware changes and new technology coming on the scene in years to come that would require a total rethink in the way things are done. A good analogy would be the old analogue TV system and how that was expanded and built upon, year upon year, decade on decade... colour, text services NICAM sound and so on but eventually new technology appears and totally new systems must be devised. Customer expectation drives that forward as well. In todays digital world that change happens much much faster.
So yes, W10 may well be the last 'Windows', but whats MS going to do then ? Sit back and let others develop its successor.
I'd not bet against many of us here today, trialling Windows successor (from MS) in a couple of years time.
