In this global consumer society? More likely consumers and enterprises just toss their perfectly good but incompatible devices in a landfill and buy new minimum spec devices, because buy buy buy is all that matters. Repeat in a year or two when Windows 12 comes out and ups the hardware requirement again.

After 2 months with arch on my gaming desktop and a month of truenas scale on the nas tower, I'm probably not going back to Windows. Though I'm not too keen on truenas, may switch to hexos after it adds more features.
