Next year Windows 10 goes End of Life. Microsoft will undoubtedly push windows 11 hard, but a lot of machines won’t support it leading to a few economic points of interest:

The demand for new machines will be high, driving up cost.

The supply of unsupported machines will be high, driving down the used market.

Are you all ready?

    I don’t know. I have a 7th gen i7 and it works fine, I want a new PC but can’t afford it, but even if I could I wouldn’t touch Win11 with a barge pole.

    I fucking hate it. I don’t want to move to Linux. Probably just pirate the updates for the next 3 years and then deal with the security risk.

    Need to petition the EU to shop this shit and force them to extend life due to the insane amount of e-waste it will cause.
