Or maybe they will launch Win 12 with optional TPM support.
Imho making the OS(es) TPM only cannot be good for their business, many people are still on Win 10 with no intention to switch, since their motheboard does not support TPM and do not want to upgrade PC / waste PCI-E slot on TPM extension.
After using Windows for 30+ years now (since Windows 1), this is one of the straws finally pushing me into Linux.
I’m running 10, but without a TPM, can’t go to 11. So sad. Not.
Honestly 7 was the last decent OS they made. In my opinion the good OS’s were NT4 (game changer), 2000, XP, 7. They can keep the rest.
Oh windows 2000 how I miss thee.
I honestly think it’s the best OS they released. Shame so many games would throw a shitfit at the time because it reported it was Windows NT (rightfully so).
3.1 and 98se were pretty decent at the time too.
Yea, 3.11 was a significant change. It was still just dos with a shell.
A usable shell, which was quite new for the time.
3.11 with win32s
All the current major distros of linux require TPM.
TPM prevents users from downloading random kinder eggs that install ransomware. Any business that disables TPM is crazy.
I’d like to see how you disable tpm on 2010s thinkpad where tpm don’t even exist
Why do you say a TPM prevents users from running malicious software? As far as I know that’s not really what they’re used for.
