Microsoft halting Windows 10 sales

So, we move to Linux then for the machines we have that aren't being supported by Microsoft anymore post the EOL support date because Win11 doesn't support the more than capable hardware? That's just stupid. I like Win11, it's a prettier version of Win10 in my books, but this is just stupid. Chasing away potential users from the new OS.

If TPM 2.0 or secure boot is holding you back, you can bypass that (and more) by making a bootable USB with Rufus.

I don't trust them. Something that cheap always has a gotcha somewhere down the line. Always. Even if it's getting their grubby, filthy mittens on your banking details or credentials. There is also no guarantee that that key is not compromised or exposed. Not safe. No thank you.

The only gotcha is you paid a shitton of money while I paid the R40 each for two pro keys on eBay which have been working just fine for me for years. Proper retail keys, not enterprise.

There is nothing wrong with these keys. Paid 90 bucks activated the key and got a second one on the same day left the key unused for well over a year before using it and no issues. Got mine on carbonite. Both still work 3 years later without issue and both are pro keys. These are OEM digital keys and once activated is tied to the hardware, once the motherboard dies, the key dies with it, but people have been successful in calling MS to reset the hardware change limit and activate with a new motherboard.

The keys is perfectly legit, how the seller acquired the keys in some instances might be sus. But the keys in it self is perfectly legit.


I mean no funny business here ?

So listen....

I've got this really nice bridge for sale. It's perfect for you and I just know you will love it.

DM me for a great deal on this once in a lifetime opportunity!
 
No worries here. I plan on moving over to Linux anyway as I refuse to make the Anti-Christ Bill gates any wealthier.

Haven't looked into that yet. It's just the regular Win Updates says it's not supported yet. Not in any rush though. It's just my media centre machine with some AMD chip in it, nothing fancy.
