Only one of my three PCs meet the requirements. Looks like I'll be buying myself a new laptop for Christmas and a new desktop in 2025.

2021-06-27T23:38:00+00:00 Some of mine were easy decisions . My current PC build , not so much. High end specs cost a lot and have built it for the 'long haul' . Previously, having a 'built' PC gave you the flexibility to buy and install adapters and upgrade. A great way to keep tech going and not add to the already high number of throw aways that now languish in dumps everywhere. Exactly would like to know if Microsoft is interested in Ecology then what do they consider the lifecycle of the products they sell and support ?

2021-06-28T00:19:36+00:00 I guess Windows 11 should work on the processors AMD Ryzen 5 2400 G with Radeon Vega Graphics and Intel Core i3 5005U CPU 2.0 GHz, altough they are not on the list of supported processors. I'll test it next week. All other hardware requirements are met.
