    Works pretty well Another great windows product I’m still trying to figure out what’s the difference between Windows pro and Windows Home though from what I understand one is for business and one is for Home but what’s the difference internally in the operating systems

    It's Windows 11, which at the moment is our only option. It does everything you expect from Microsoft, for better or worse.

    It's Windows, nothing drastically new. Installation was easy, but make sure to have a network connected device nearby to look up how to bypass the account creation/internet setup since it likely won't find or connect to your internet as was my case. After that update it and then turn off all the AI crap and anything else you don't like and it runs just fine. The design is okay enough and it's seems quite snappy. No complaints so far, it's about what you expect from Windows.

    Smooth install. No hiccups. Took a while, but not hours. I didn't do an upgrade, it was a clean install. It's an older Desktop, but met the win 11 requirements. Upgraded to a 2tb HDD while I was at it.

    Pros: - Quality packaging and Windows key card - USB functioned as expected - Convenient - ZERO issues with install and stable after until I tried to Enable Asus BIOS Undervolt Protection and put me into a boot loop - this is a pro because I had no issue putting thumb drive back in and booting off of it again to repair some windows files. Cons: - Too expensive

    I haven't built a new computer since 2014 and technology has changed quite a bit. If I hadn't had a friend tell me the Windows comes on a thumb drive now I would have been so confused by the lack of a disk. But it installed from the thumb drive seamlessly and hasn't glitched at all. There was a bit of a learning curve from Win10 to Win11 but not too hard to figure out if you are willing to poke around a bit. The power "button" is in a completely different place, for instance. But it doesn't talke long to get used to the changes.

    I’d been stubbornly avoiding Windows 11 like it was an optional dentist appointment. But Copilot and the Android phone tie-in lured me in. Turns out, it actually does what it promises — and seems to be managing my hardware better than I ever did.
