Does anyone want windows 11 at all?
Not seen a single new feature in windows I cared about since XP 64 bit.
I’ve been using it for quite a while now… it’s fine. This happens literally every single time a new windows version comes out.
The only genuinely bad Windows IME was ME. Vista had driver teething problems, and 8 had a weird UI, but outside of that… they’re all just fine.
I’ve been building PCs since the late 90s and have pirated Windows from 98 on up.
It's better than 10 At least. I think to myself "I hate w*ndows" every 6 minutes while at work. Before the update it was every 5 minutes.
Really? You mean we can now move the taskbar to the left or right? What about the taskbar right click options? All back? It finally has a proper dedicated tablet mode? I can group apps in the start menu again as opposed to having a launcher copied from Android? My events show in the taskbar calendar again? The right click menu doesn't make me click twice for almost everything anymore?
If so, cool. I'll switch.
If not, 10 it is.
Our users have postponed receiving new laptops because of the negative response they've heard from others in the company using Windows 11. Stuff just breaks all the time. Lenovo docking stations have consistent monitor issues on 11. We spend a majority of our time fixing little things we never would have thought about on 10.
