PCs that can’t run Windows 11 are valuable to people who don’t want to wake up one morning and find they’ve been upgraded against their will.

Windows 10 will be EOL this time next year. You have one year to do something.

A lot of people will just be paying for 0patch for a while, I'm sure. The remainder will just not patch at all and hope for the best.
