    My last laptop I bought with the top of the line latest CPU at that time, and Windows 10 on it. I think originally that processor wasn’t even going to be supported by anything older than 10, which created a big stink at the time.

    That proc generation isn’t supported by 11, so really, it was only ever a Windows 10 processor.

    I’m generally okay with ending hardware support at some point, but that was really quick to cut off something like the processor that could easily have 10+ years of usable life.
