Windows 11: Meet the new OS, same as the old OS (or close enough)

Re: Going back in time

Adding features in a service pack? Like that want to get into trouble for doing that AGAIN...

No I think they basically seem to be saying "we'll do UI revisions as a major version number, everybody that actually cares about what it does under the hood, well, just carry on as normal".

Which is sensible, but I also think there may be a danger of them very quickly saying "ah, Windows 10 is legacy, we're not going to do any updates other than security", in hopes of driving hardware sales worldwide (mainly as a favour to HP, Dell, etc). Which is a handy thing to do, just at the time there's a worldwide chip shortage.

Oh, I'm confused. Clearly I need more coffee.
