Then bear the following min requirements in mind:

Memory 4 GB RAM

System firmware UEFI, Secure Boot capable
TPM Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 2.0
Graphics card DirectX 12 compatible graphics / WDDM 2.x
Display >9” with HD Resolution (720p)
Internet connection Microsoft account and internet connectivity required for setup for Windows 11 Home

That's hardly high-spec!

[youngmafbog]

No, but the dual core might catch some people buying on the cheap end.

Just a warning, take no notice if you dont care.

I think you'd be hard pressed to find any computer with a single core processor today.
The thing that's going to catch most people out is the Trusted Platform Module.

Even Microsoft's own Surface Studio 2, which it's currently selling for £3,549, isn't Windows 11 compliant!

Fine TheChair, I'm only trying to help.

Laptops are likely to be the thing to watch.

There is an app you can download that will test your machine. I suspect there will be quite a few current machines that will struggle. I have a couple of i7 laptops that wont do it.

It would be very interesting to hear from those people whose computers ARE Windows 11-compliant, together with the make, model and price.
