WINDOWS 11 ???
Microsoft is getting ready to announce the biggest update to Windows since Windows 10’s debut in 2015. Even though the company hasn’t officially revealed anything about this update, all signs point to it offering a significantly different experience. In fact, the update is supposed to be so radical that it could lead to a new version number, Windows 11. Though Microsoft hasn’t confirmed the name change, it has strongly hinted at it, both in the artwork for its June 24 press event and in its 11 a.m. starting time.
What follows is everything we know so far about the update that will likely be called Windows 11.
When Will Windows 11 Be Announced?
Microsoft started teasing Windows 11 on June 2 with an invitation to a digital event called “What’s Next for Windows” scheduled for June 24 at 11 a.m. ET. The invitation featured a GIF showcasing a redesigned Windows logo that defies the laws of physics by casting just two shadows that, if you squint, look a bit like “11.”

You mean they've figured out how to make it even more intrusive, take even more control, make it even less compatible with existing software, and create even more vulnerabilities for hackers?

If I were being honest I would concede that my computer knowledge is severely lacking. But when I look at the obvious connection between Big Tech and the government, the new Windows would be designed to be more intrusive, to take more control and to be less compatible with any other system to keep Microsoft and old Bill in the drivers seat.
The ease of hacking I'm not sure about. It is already set up so the powers that be know everything about us through the past and current versions of Windows. Windows 11 would, I'm sure, continue making this intrusive ability even more intrusive, if that is even possible. Who needs hackers when the government and Big Tech already know everything about us??

Why do they have to reinvent the wheel every time? 90% of the stuff they are so proud of is useless to me an only make things more difficult. This dog is getting too old to learn new computer tricks. (I did pretty good with FORTRAN IV and punch cards!) 😏

Great, 5 years of non-stop updates to fix all the glitches.

Punch cards and paper tape, Wild Turkey. Where I started working in '69 we even had an analog computer though HP digitals were being phased in.

Switch to Linux and truly OWN your computer. At least 95% of the things you do with Windows can be done with free and open-source software, and you'be be hard-pressed to see any difference in how Linux works if you use one of the many variants like Mint - which is the one I highly recommend.
Linux Mint is faster, easier, smaller, and MUCH safer than Windows or MAC.
PM me for an article I wrote on how to try it without actually installing it - and then when you see how good it is, install it and be free of Microsoft forever. I'm not a geek, and if I can do this, you can, too.

Grrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaattttttt. I wonder why they don't just fix 10 and call it good?
I spend my life on bare metal on UNIX boxes and only use DOS/Windows when I have to. It's almost a holy day now when we have to reboot a UNIX box, after it running flawlessly for 6 months. Not so with Windows.
I'm with Rocky... get a copy of Linux and try it for a month. You'll never go back.

I've been using Linux Mint for 18 months on this machine. It has run flawlessly with only one time when it froze and would not respond to keyboard or mouse. Reboot and back in business. Updates are done in the background so my machine is never held hostage, and they never start until I give permission. It uses only a fraction of the RAM and disk space that Windows used to; it simply flies. It does not collect data, it is nearly immune to malware, hackers, and spies.
The umpteenth time that my wife's computer locked up with a corrupted Windows registry, she finally allowed me to load Linux Mint on it. She's the least computer savvy person I know and yet she sails right along with Mint, hardly noticing any differences in how it works. Fellas, if she can use Mint with hardly any transition woes, so can you.
