          Or better yet, windows 10 LTSC. Which will be supported for another 2 years. 4 if you subsequently switch the product key to the IOT LTSC version.

              It’s online corps offload computers but there will be a delay and many will just have the extended windows 10 supports. So I’d give it another year.

                  Ah, the old Ben Shapiro logic. If you don't want your house that's at risk of flooding, don't worry, simply sell it! Someone's bound to give you a good price for it!

                        The hurdles windows users are willing to put up with is nothing less than amazing. That's not a good thing.

                          It's one new PC, Michael. How much could it cost? $10?

                          What's 10 dollars? The people saying this are too rich to understand poor numbers. They probably think in terms of "a new pc costs less than an hour at my favorite spa, people are complaining too much".

                            Ms will stop supporting windows 10. Windows 11 has hardware requirements for a specific security chip and processors with specific features, so upgrading components isn’t an option.

                            If you have an old pc you can’t easily upgrade. Theres ways of forcing it to work but it’s not supported.

                            A lot of businesses will be getting rid of their old pcs so they dont need to deal with the hassle.

                            Linux will still support and run on the older hardware, so a lot of people are expecting used hardware prices to drop.

                                      Windows updates don't work correctly a lot of the time if you've bypassed the requirements. My predecessor at work installed 11 on some ancient systems and it's been a hassle.

                                        Or look at it the other way: they hate Linux so much they'd rather deal with that than deal with Linux.

                                          No, the police will show up at your door on October 11th and arrest you on the spot.

                                          If you're in the US you'll be sent to El Salvador. If you're anywhere else you'll be sent to the US, receive a few tattoos, then El Salvador.
