    What is the point in an official upgrade if it is unsupported? Seems like a way to trick people into an upgrade so they can start nagging users to throw away their hardware and get a new computer.

    So glad I don’t have to worry about this bullshit on my 11+ year old computer that is perfectly fine running Linux without any major issue or lack of support.

      Security updates, mostly. If you’re running an old Windows install on a computer connected to the internet, it’s only a matter if time until it gets comprom byised.

      But yeah, I’m also on Linux, so no worries here.

      Same thing they have done for years now, turning a blind eye to pirated versions because they know installed base drives software to support Windows.
