Re: Hardware requirements
"Tried installing Windows 10 on your average run-of-the-mill laptop with HDD?"
Yeah I have as a matter of fact.
What you neglected to notice is that I was talking about POS terminals, not laptops.
I've not worked with a POS terminal since about 2012 that came with a HDD installed. They use SSDs as they're generally powered on 24/7 and don't write much to disk locally.
And even if they did use spinning disks, it would still be cheaper to upgrade to SSD and migrate to Windows 10 IoT than chuck the lot in the skip and buy new gear.
