Deciding to send to the landfill every PC sold after 2018 is a decision that they saw analyzing only numbers from big American corporations. “Anyway they lease the computers and have a refresh every 3-5 years”
But the rest of the world?
Here in Italy I still see people on Windows 7
When I traveled in southeast Asia I saw people using windows XP
Or Brazil, where the import taxes make a windows 11 compatible PC ultra expensive
Regular people and small businesses , especially outside the USA won’t simply buy a new PC just because Microsoft and Intel needed the line to go up.
Even in the USA, although probably not at the rate of other countries, a lot of individuals (especially ones who don’t have enough disposable income or are retirees) will also keep their system configs no matter what Microsoft says.
There’s a chance it will happen outside the USA.
