Right now, my PC is unable to install Windows 11, it lacks a facility. Setting up my PC to enable this facility ('TM') is complex so I'm in a pickle. I'm fond of the aphorism "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" . I like Windows 10 just fine.
Be most interested to learn about people's experiences with Windows 11.
I don't trust Windows. In my 30 years of using that product, it seems every other version sucks. Vista was the biggest clusterfuck so far.
Me neither. Used computers at work from 1982. First PC was a pentium2 with windows 98 which I loved. Bought in '99. Hated XP at first, but once I got used to it I loved it.
Last Windows version I used was Windows 8. Liked it a lot. Then I bought an iMac.
True enough every new windows version has had bugs. 11 seems to have too many for me from what I can gather.
I loathe Apple as a company . Every new series had bugs. I always ended up losing something. Mostly I loathe them for their price gouging and appalling customer service. Haven't contacted them for several years. Every time I contacted them, the alleged technician never once tried to actually fix the problem. Instead tried to sell me upgrades. On one occasion one bloke even claimed my processor is inadequate. (it ain't)
Why buy an Imac? Because I thought they were elegant. (first all in one I saw was an Imac) As it turns out, the Imac is actually a very good computer. I actually like the MAC OS a lot more than Windows.. Seems a lot more intuitive to me
Will I ever buy another Mac? Absolutely not. Do I recommend iMac? Not really, the price is about double what is should be imo. But if you have plenty of money, why not.
Bought my basic iMac (21.5 inch screen) in early 2016. It was $1600. This was an independent retailer. They threw in the magic mouse and keyboard, which are also elegant.
Had a local chain, MSY built this PC to my specs. Perhaps a little better processor than I need.:
Basic mother board and graphic card. I'm not a gamer.
8GB of RAM. Processor Intel i5 , 8 core. Storage 1TB SSD, no HDD. Storage drive is partitioned so C:/ only uses a small part. 32 inch Viewsonic monitor. Windows 10. Total cost $1600
Yeah, still have the iMac and an el cheapo Lenovo laptop on which I run Linux mint
