Can’t upgrade your PC to Windows 11? Buy a new one, is Microsoft’s laughable solution

Can't Upgrade to Windows 11? Microsoft's Advice Is to "Buy a New PC"
If you're currently using any version of Windows other than Windows 11, then your system is either already unsupported (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8.1), or soon to become unsupported (Windows 10). And Microsoft's best advice for anyone in that situation is "move to Windows 11 by buying a new PC".
Want to upgrade to Windows 11? Just buy a new PC, says Microsoft
When Windows 11 was released, it set an ultimatum for people wanting to upgrade; have a CPU that supports TPM 2.0, or don't upgrade at all. Since then, the company has seen Windows 10 users holding onto their systems and people finding ways to dodge Windows 11's system requirements and run it on unsupported hardware.
