My overused work laptop disintegrated on me yesterday. Been so busy and I do not get a break until Chinese new year. Having to use the literally held together with glue and tape backup to keep going. However, I was able to order a simple workhorse, a known Asus i3, for a song because it's Windows 10 stock. Vendors offering knockdown prices to shift machines that don;t meet Windows 11's insane requirements. Yeah, using MX-Linux KDE. I don't need Photoshop so I don't need Windows.
I hope the market share keeps dropping for windows 11 and an uptick for Linux based OS's. I use Win 10 for editing software then switch to linux Mint as a daily driver.
I have to wonder what exactly does Windows 11 offer? These bozos at Microsoft are clueless about anyone not making 6 figures like they do would want 11. For AI? No, not gonna.
It's interesting that Microsoft published on their website how to upgrade on an unsupported PC, which even says not recommended on the page
How about listening to your customers instead of pointless lectores - remember there is 0patch
I should fire up my two Windows 10 machines and see what shows up. One is too old to upgrade, and the other hasn't the storage to upgrade.
I think today's smartphones have thrown a spanner in the works in regards to PC sale cycles. 🤔
Changing to a SSD isn't expensive
Windows 10 is the best Windows ever. I have had two small minor problems since 2015. No need to change something that works well.
Microsoft a full-blown panic mode. No tears of sympathy from me.

MS should unleash Windows 11 on older PCs, by getting rid of the artificial requirements, and save millions of old PC from the landfill.
Plus, people have deep into their pockets these days. Where some have to choose whether to eat or heat, who thinks about a new computer?
the year od the windows 10 decline or will it be ?
me i am learning linux to switch to it once i no longer need win11
MICROSOFT MAY AS WELL JUST TELL PEOPLE TO GET RID OF MICROSOFT PRODUCTS ENTIRELY AND MOVE TO ANOTHER OS .
Microsoft let's block millions of people from upgrading to windows 11, Now Microsoft why are people not upgrading to windows 11? 😅
