Windows 11 is a major regression.

10 was better, but I’d pay for a modern version of windows 2kpro UI. Bring back msn messsenger.

It’s basically a gaming box, everything else is on a Mac or Linux machine, all on my desk.

Actually, it is a substantially worse gaming box too once you've used SteamOS/Bazzite. All it's good for right now is windows-only legacy software and anti-cheat implementations for the time being.

And somewhat excel because excel is badly implemented on mac

The only "game" I could not run on Cachy Os Linux is 3DMark. Some benchmark run, but not all.

honestly Linux has gotten pretty good even for gaming, I set up a Linux (Fedora) on my primary gaming rig as a lark and figured I would go back to windows but I have not really had the need to and some games actually even run better on Linux it seems.

Didn't I recently read on here that MS themselves admit SteamOS has better performance than Windows for gaming?

100%.

I'd pay for this, compatible with Windows 11 apps, but basically works like NT4.

Done. This is how easy it is to make money off you people.
