Funny thing is I ordered a win 10 Microsoft laptop from Microsoft 1 year before win 11 came out.? I would have waited had I known, but this was the best one they made at the time, win11 came out and this laptop does not meet requirements for win11.? Go figure.

Based on some previous conversations, with both HAM folks, and others, I wrote an article about whether it was time to upgrade to Windows 11.?
The article doesn't have any HAM radio specifics, it's definitely more targeted at general business or personal computer usage, but the concepts can apply to us HAM folks, as well.
However, the FAQ section specifically answers Microsoft's Windows 11 Upgrade FAQ with some insights of our own. Feel free to forward it to anyone who might have questions or concerns about the upgrade!?
To be perfectly transparent -- this is my side business, and it's what I do, so the bottom of the post is a little "advertise-y", but not too much.?
Personally, my HAM radio laptop is a Surface Pro Gen 3, which is not eligible for the upgrade, and I'll likely be stretching it for a couple of years more.?
