For those with a computer that can’t handle Window 11, and who are

I don't thave a link but I read that some or many pcs that MS says can't
handle win11 can, and there are ways to install 11 on them.  Sorry I
have no advice on who this applies to or how to do it.
 
 

Which one is the smart choice? The “End of 10” project is here to help
you make an informed decision.

Did I oversleep ? (channeling "T")

Some people worry about the strangest things.

I'm partying here, like it is 1999 :-)
