Windows 10 EOL

Is Microsoft going to buy systems for those who are Retired living off of Social Security? Are they going to provide for those who cannot upgrade systems due to the poor economy that the Obama and Biden Administration created, helped by institutions and businesses like Microsoft? I doubt a Multimillion Business really cares for the people they will lose by these new requirements.

Since the "ALL MIGHTY" Microsoft thinks EVERYONE can go out and buy a new system, what about those on Social Security who can only afford to buy inexpensive systems that can NEVER meet the requirements of the overrated Windows 11.

I have been a Computer Tech since Windows 98, and have been able to keep my systems secure with the machines that have always been dependable.

Now, my wife and I are retired and do not have the type of funds to buy a decent system with the required memory (32 minimum, as Windows always need more and more overheard with each new OS) and the required Trust.

The only solution I see is to dump Microsoft and start learning one or more of the Linux Distros once Windows 10 becomes another lost Dinosaur.

Windows for home | Windows 10 | End of support (EOS)

    Win11 doesnt need 32mb memory, in fact most programs would not be ably to make use of that size. 8mb is sufficient for the majority

    I purchased a main brand (US make) refurb desktop which is more than adequate for browsing, from a US online seller, and I dont live in the US
