    No, I probably wont until I "have" to, which is 2025 I believe, when I think I read they will end support for Win10.

    I thought Windows 10 was just going to be updated forever.

    Imagine Microsoft having a plan and sticking to it.

    That's what they originally said, they lied.

    Very high CPU requirements. Much higher than actually needed. Won't load on many CPUs. Seems intentionally rigged.

    Same shit with 4G too. They originally called it LTE - Long Term Evolution. Now we got 5G, but there is no actual difference between the two. Just marketing.

    Microsoft is ending support for Windows 10 on October 14th, 2025

    So close to that time I guess...assuming global warming hasn't killed us all in 4yrs

    I have a 6th gen processor which apparently won't be compatible with the "new security features" they're implementing, and I'm not upgrading my PC until it's actually necessary so yeah. Probably not going to have Windows 11 until the latter half of this decade if ever.

    I don't like how recent versions of Win10 semi forces you to enter your microsoft account when you are setting it up...sure you don't have to but for the average gont it's not readily apparent that you can skip it.

    Also the tying of your mobo/hard drive to the operating system via keys etc, haven't really looked much into that but dealt with it a couple of time when trying to clone disks and it's a pain in the arse (mainly because I'm too lazy to read up on it).

    I have like 4 microsoft accounts set up on my computer, I can't figure out which is actually used or how they work. It's such a simple thing, it's just like Microsoft to fuck it up.

    Here's why Dell is charging more for some Windows 11 laptops

    Dell replied with the following statement to our story:

    Dell XPS 13© Provided by TechRadar Dell XPS 13
    "The starting price of the equally configured Windows 10 vs 11 XPS 13 laptops are the same, but we have applied a larger discount on the Windows 10 version of this particular XPS 13 model to clear out inventory. Keep in mind, Windows 11 is still a free upgrade on the Windows 10 model."

    Dell is charging customers extra for choosing Microsoft’s latest Windows 11 operating system on some of its most popular laptops, according to research carried out by TechRadar Pro.

    The findings shed light on a curious and controversial “Windows 11 tax” that is perplexing given Microsoft’s crystal-clear statement that Windows 10 users will be able to upgrade to Windows 11 for free.

    For example, one of the company's best laptops right now, the award winning Dell XPS 13, costs $881.99 with WiIndows 11 home and $734.99 with Windows 10 Home (both prices at the time of writing).

    That’s a 20% price difference or $147. In the UK, there is a more reasonable price difference (£50 or 5.9%) between Windows 11 Home and Windows 10 Home for the same product but “justified” by an upgrade from 256GB to 512GB SSD.

    Misprice or deliberate strategy?
    Other models where we’ve noticed such discrepancies include the Dell Inspiron 15 and the Inspiron 13 (2-in-1). Windows 10 Pro, Windows 10 S, desktops and professional products (business laptops, mobile workstations) haven’t been impacted.

    No other major vendors (HP and Lenovo) have similar issues so it is likely that this is a misprice or an innovative pricing strategy. We reached out to Dell to find out why that was the case and will update the article when we get an official statement from them.

    To Dell’s credit though, it is the only major vendor that offers multiple Windows SKUs (up to six) for a significant number of its products.

    Windows 11 is the first major operating system launch for Microsoft in five years and has been viewed as a mixed bag. Our reviews point out the fact that system requirements are still confusing and the redesign seems more like a reskin.

    Sorry, I couldn't find anything pertinent to the discussion on The Cartoon Channel so you could comprehend.

    There will inevitably be a patch soon where you can force bypass the requirements and upgrade free. There's basically no difference between Windows10 and Windows11. It's just a re-skin of Windows10.
