  1. Many computers can get Win11 just by plugging in the $18 TPM chip to their motherboards, regardless of what windows update says.

  2. There are a few protocols to push Win11 onto computers with unsupported CPUs, or without TPMs.

I've updated 6 computers that "failed" meet minimal requirements.

This is a massive scam to send 400 million perfectly good computers to landfills.

    It does however mean that you can get a lot of used computers really really cheap right now
