New Release. Today Microsoft has released the new Windows 11 which is available to download for Free.

You have 3 options for installing or creating Windows 11 media: 1) simply download to your device; 2) create a bootable USB or DVD or 3) download a disk image (ISO). Lastly, you hope it doesn't break anything.

Or just download a Linux Mint and say bye-bye to these bums. - leohaywire
With too many flavors and spin-offs of each flavor. Not for everyone.
Linus Torvalds created what is quite possibly the best OS in the world, but sadly it's not for the masses.

I thought MS said Windows 10 Spyware would be the last O/S they made. Does Windows 11 have the colorful 3D menus like Windows XP had 20 years ago or is it the single color stick figure lazy *** menus like Windows 10?

Yep, that's going to be the big one nobody is talking about. M$ released as OS that maybe works on 25% of current Win10 computers, prolly less. I think that is a huge misstep in a world where the ubiquity of a win OS is on the decline.

As for the "deal", the media itself being free really isn't a deal at all if you still need a license.

That way you can tell the office hottie how super edgy you are and hope she actually looks at you for once.

Why don't you trust the vaccine? I invented it myself. It's the best vaccine ever!

I've been looking for something to slow down my Ryzen CPU by 10-15%, thanks Ben! That pesky L3 cache is just too fast.
