    Man, those processors aren’t even that old. The i7-10875H came out in mid 2020 for example. That is a perfectly capable processor that can run most tasks without a sweat.

    I’m so damn happy I got out of that ecosystem this year.

      My laptop has the slightly refreshed 10870H. I got it in early '21. A 4 year old laptop isn’t new enough for Windows 11.

    I’ve heard from a penguin that there’s a solution to this… 🐧

    WTF Microsoft? I really hope this is a mistake. This is a no go for enterprise environments.

    This really pisses me off, but because Windows 11 is not significantly different from Windows 10. I’m running Windows 10 on decades-old hardware designed for Win7.

    Sure, its a bit pokey, but most of the bottleneck is HDD technology.

    DDR2 throughput is about 8GB/s. SATA III is 600 Mb/s

    Just installing a SSD and having 8 GB of memory is enough for the average office worker who has a browser, mail, PDF, and productivity suite.

    Anything released in the past 6 years should be sufficient for this.

    My bet, hands down, is that they are betting hard on AI.

    What a dogshit OS 🪟.

    This is the exact same bullshit Apple pulls every few years, but no one talks about it. Why?

    I said I wouldn’t do it. I installed Windows 11 yesterday, but went back to Windows 10 today. Windows 11 is going to be like Windows Vista or Windows 8 for me. I’m just going to take my chances and skip it. I would love to go to Mint, but Linux doesn’t support the only game I play, Black Ops 6.

      Yep, it’s a lousy OS, and MS just keeps digging in and making it worse. Why?

      Damn shame. I’m sure it will run eventually

        Given Activision’s track record, I wouldn’t count on it unless valve strongly intervene. Contemporaries like EA have even backtracked on Linux compat for anticheat.

    As crazy as that is, playing devil’s advocate, Comet Lake is basically the aging Skylake architecture.

    Ice Lake though? WTF.

      The bigger issue is that it was at one point supported. What does that mean for 8th and 9th gen hardware running Windows 11?
