In related news: 5 in 6 PCs in the real world not compatible with Windows 11?

2 desktops and a laptop here, only the laptop is Windows 11 capable (and just barely - it’s an 8th generation intel which is exactly the minimum MS specified) but the installer fails because the TPM is too old (not 2.0).

Windows 11 only on 1 in 6 PCs because only 1 in 6 actually meet the requirements, perhaps? Especially since it’s being pushed down by Windows update now so you have to click “no” on a box saying how wonderful it is in order to NOT install it. Repeatedly. On a machine that can’t take it due to the TPM version. It’s not getting annoying ;)

At a time when many people are struggling financially, trying to force people to upgrade their hardware is a bit low even for MS. My laptops still under warranty (expires when it gets to 3 years old) but is apparently “too old” for Windows 11, how ridiculous!
