I forget, was it Win10 that was supposed to be the last version of Windows ever?

Upgraded all my Win 10 machines to Linux so you're spot on

I knew this would be here…

Look, I’m normally not one to defend M$ but this just isn’t the case. One dude who was on stage for something else, who yes worked for M$ but isn’t PR or anything, made that statement as an offhand comment. The press ran with it, as they are wont to do.

Bottom line is, M$ never claimed W10 was their last os. It was “just some guy”.

By all accounts it was someone who didn't speak English as their first language and described the version as "last" when they meant "latest".

Yes it was, but this was before Nadella went full AI bro.
