Remember how Windows 10 was going to be the last version of Windows?
Well, the author of these articles says that this is really Windows 10.X.

It is completely beyond me why anybody would get excited by those screenshots. They could easily be Win 10.

A few years ago I listened to a lot of the nay-sayers, and put Ubuntu on a dual-boot for a laugh. During one of its many updates it essentially bricked the partition, at which point I decided to become a penguin-killing psychopath.
Windows has never done that to me, for all its many irritations.

UI design seems to be moving towards flat and sleek at the expense of usability.
I remember big buttons with black outlines (now you gotta hover over the icons to see the button outlines). Big input boxes for text fields, large scrolling bars with precise control.
Yes - the UI's look better these days. I think they're also less functional.

Yeah, but these kinds of things happen in waves. It'll swing back soon and old will become new again.
Please love yourself.

Sometimes there are real revolutions. The most significant for UI design was probably the "Mother of All Demos" from 1968.

@mark that is easily the most annoying person I’ve seen all day. And, judging from the company on this forum, that’s a hell of a comment!

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

He is exceptionally annoying, but he does some very informative stuff, and he typically gives very honest reviews.

Yeah, it's "free," but your 3-year-old top-of-the line MICROSOFT computer won't be able to run it.
Windows 11 will only officially support 8th Gen and newer Intel Core processors, alongside Apollo Lake and newer Pentium and Celeron processors.
That potentially rules out millions of existing Windows 10 devices from upgrading to Windows 11 with full support, and even devices like Microsoft’s own Surface Studio 2 which the company is still selling right now for $3,499. Older devices that aren’t officially supported will be met with a warning during the Windows 11 install that the upgrade is not recommended, but the OS should still install.
Windows 11 will also only officially support AMD Ryzen 2000 and newer processors, and 2nd Gen or newer EPYC chips.
