    Seems to do the job.
    You must have a brighter class of friends than some of mine. Mine would be wondering what the 'whoosh' was as that one went right over their heads.

    Nope. Work laptop is i7-6600U so way too old on the CPU front as support begins with the 8th gen barring a few 7th gen HEDT cpus.

    Same as a few others I get the "Your organisation manages updates on this PC" message so I can't run it. Probably down to how my PC is set up ( Openshell etc ) but I don't care , not gonna install Win11 anyway but was curious. I have an MSI B450 Pro Carbon , Ryzen 5 2600 and 16gb GSkill 3200. More than happy with my PC and it does everything I need without breaking a sweat. It is running Win10 and thanks to Openshell is tolerable for use as I prefer Win7 and with this istalled and tweaked behaves and looks about the same. Motherboard has provision for TPM but won't be getting it as the system won't be getting their bloody Win11 either.I really wish M.S would get back to making a basic sensible Operating system without all the embedded crap they now impose on us , if they insist on providing all the extra bloat and garbage make it optional at install , all of it. Fat chance I know , think they have ignored the fact that our PC's are supposed to be ours not part of their control think tank.

    Yep. Which tickles me slightly as I'm running an 8700K on a now six year old, Z170-based Maximus VIII Hero. State of the art it now isn't but it ticks over very nicely at 5.3GHz when needed and does everything I need it to with complete stability. Next system will be Alder- or Raptor Lake.

    Whether, and when, I actually install Win11 remains more of a question. It'll be going on a spare disk and a full eval sequence run before there's any chance of it replacing my primary Win10 build.

    Yes bought new laptop to run it (Ryzen 5500U) and PC is Ryzen 3600/x570 so no issues. I'll probably upgrade on day one despite having avoided the beta. I always have done a day one install since vista and never had big issues (I only delayed XP because I was a teenager!).
    Trust

    Laptop : Dell Inspiron 1545 with Ryzen 5500u, 16gb and 256 NVMe, Windows 11.

    XP burned me as a teenager. Since then I've never done a day one. At least unlike the XP days you don't need to wait till SP1 before it's usable. They're more reactive these days.

    nope... because an i5 7th Gen won't beat a Celeron in Microsoft eyes...

    Hmm this might be a problem for the kids school laptops which are old hand me downs. This is the only beta i've not used since 98/ME days. Those old longhorn builds were the good days.
