Oh shit, I've been installing win 11 on a bunch of old hardware, didn't realize what the big fuss was about it. I also use Rufus exclusively. Didn't realize it was working so smoothly because I used Rufus haha
Huh. It's almost as if Microsoft just wants more money from people buying a new computer with their new OS. No one could see that coming.
Yeah Microsoft is ripping EVERYONE off with a free upgrade ๐
Bunch of nerds screaming over a free upgrade. Shocked.
The free upgrade part is not the thing that upsets me, if you even bothered to read the context. It's the fact that you may not be able to upgrade an old machine to Windows 11 by "traditional means" (clicking a button), because Microsoft deems it "unsupported", which the above commenter disproved by saying they were able to install it even on this "unsupported" hardware.
Don't mean to disrespect, but I recommend you read the context before you start rolling your eyes and calling people names. Applies to real life too. Have a good day!
