There’s a lot of stuff that still doesn’t run on linux as far as I know.

It’s 8 years old. FFS install Linux and have a little server or some shit if you really can’t be bothered to upgrade.

If it runs Windows 10 - it runs Linux too.

I mean the software I’m running on Win 10. As far as I know, a lot of it still won’t run on linux.
Anyway, moot point since people said in this thread that you can bypass the TPM and Microsoft account requirements with Rufus. So anyone should be able to upgrade to Win 11.

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

I have a 12 year old computer that runs Windows 10 perfectly fine.

It’s corporations. My company is currently upgrading a shit ton of PCs before our windows 11 push.

Ok so if you built a computer in like 2019 or 2020 it’s only 4-5 years old. This was before windows 11 came out. 4-5 years is not that old for a computer, especially if you built a good one.

This is what happened to me, a really high end PC built in 2018 and I couldn’t even upgrade! Decided to try out Zorin and have been pleasantly surprised.

Been using Linux for years, it’s my daily driver and does everything I need except for a few headaches with a AAA game here or there, other than that it runs all my games does all my web browsing and all my video editing and other stuff without issues.

Nothing built in 19 doesn’t have tpm.

I have a ryzen 3800X and an x570 motherboard. It was one of the best motherboards at the time. No TPM support. You’re wrong.

Model and brand?

It’s also CPU generation, unless that’s changed since the last time I looked.
