Why is everyone so mad about Windows 11?
You're puzzled about the pricing and setup. It seems affordable to you since you already own the hardware. The SSD upgrade was a straightforward purchase, and the overall process worked smoothly on your system. Microsoft's pricing might vary based on region or specific configurations.

Deploying it across over 2000 devices worldwide on various machines via netboot (PXE) will be necessary. Absolutely, a distribution update always sparks discontent, no matter who initiates it.

It doesn’t pose a problem for CPUs from the past ten years or more. You don’t even require a special module. What’s trickier is the random rule Microsoft set for 8th gen Intel or Ryzen 2nd gen and newer. The Insiders can use it on any system, but technically you wouldn’t get the latest version with what you have.

07-08-2021, 02:09 AM #5Often for valid reasons—like Vista being a bit chaotic—I never developed strong feelings for 10. It's the most stable Windows experience I've ever had. I enjoyed XP and 7, but 10 works with nearly anything I test. Whether it's a high-end machine or an old setup, it keeps running smoothly. My mom even uses it on a Dell Latitude E4300, and it performs perfectly. So do you think they'll eventually switch once it moves past beta? It seems like the Dutch say, 'the soup won't be eaten as hot as it got served,' which means it probably won't be as intense as it appears. I wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft eventually lets older systems from the 8th generation and Ryzen 2nd gen run Windows 11. Let's take a look. My primary driver is a 2nd gen Ryzen 2700x, so everything looks good. However, I have a projector-connected PC for video watching and another for work, both running 3rd and 4th generation i3 processors. It's interesting to see what the future holds for them. I'm not a big Linux enthusiast (though I enjoy tinkering), so I guess upgrading those will be necessary when Windows 10 support ends in four years. By then, those processors should feel quite outdated. While it might seem old, a system that's been around for eight years is still useful for most people once they're pushed to upgrade. And for those who can't afford an 8-year-old PC, I hope they get assistance from friends—man, they must be struggling financially

Just let things cool down naturally—there’s been plenty of discussion about people being upset about w11, so consider creating a single large thread instead of many smaller ones cluttering the forum.

07-09-2021, 02:13 AM #8Several users seem pressured to move to Windows 11 right away. If you require a TPM chip, you have four years to obtain one. The EOL date for Windows 10 is scheduled for 2025, which could be delayed due to various factors; by then, many systems failing to meet the minimum specs will likely be outdated. For those still using it, Microsoft may continue providing critical security patches for several more years, allowing these machines to operate smoothly on Windows 10 even after official support ends.
It will differ for each person, though I've faced several issues with new Windows versions. Vista was a bit challenging, mainly because of my limited hardware at that time. Most complaints about Windows have been around since Vista. - I'm not disliking Vista, I actually enjoyed it when I upgraded my system, but it's still a reality.
