doesnt ltsb basically come with nothing useful. why not just install linux at that point lol

define "useful"

it doesn't include any modern apps or any bundleware garbage, which is a definite improvement over the pro sku

enterprise ltsb is locked on that kernel version (so it doesn't get those quarterly update packs unless you specifically do a full upgrade install of some newer ltsb build, but they only do one of those a year), doesn't come with edge (it only has ie11 as a browser) and it doesn't have the windows store or any support whatsoever for those apps so you can't play all those great play anywhere games that are bound to be announced at the next e3

calc and weather are modern apps, unless ltsb includes non-modern versions

you can’t use the Ubuntu on Windows thing on ltsb

if Microsoft had any smarts winning solitaire would turn on the webcam so ou can look at your sad ugly Face in the corner of the screen while solitaire grep your friend’s Facebook profiles for pictures of fun and family and displays that to you

this could be you but you chose to play solitaire instead, you sad sack
