Windows 11? Why???
« on: June 30, 2021, 2202 UTC »
So, it's supposed to be like Mac OS? Mac OS sucks now. At least, I think it does. https://www.cnet.com/news/windows-11-release-date-this-is-when-you-can-install-microsofts-free-update/

I must be getting older. Now, when I watch a 007 James Bond flick, Ms. Moneypenny is even looking more attractive.

Because the good folks at Micro$oft have run out of creativity. Look at the Edge browser. It is Google Chrome with a Microsoft skin & Microsoft services / telemetry. A leaked copy of Windows 11 was released a couple of weeks ago. Personally, I was content with Windows XP and still running a mix of Windows XP and 7.

I gave up on MS years ago.  I've been running Linux in some flavor for over a decade.  Its free, and has it quirks, but does what I need.  Did I mention its free?  ;D
