I'm designing a Steam operated computer that should run Win-12 very nicely.

- Windows 11/Pro/64
I would really love to see Windows 12 go modular. Buy the aps you need and forget the spyware, bloatware, adware, shareware, fearware, anywhere, I don't care. Build as you go and go as you grow. Now that would be a great way to personalize your PC!

I wouldn't be at all surprised, W11 was out some time before I found out about it.

Likewise, , , I got my first copy of Win-11/Pro/64 last August (2022) and I've updated it three times since then.
Now running a version I got in Jan '23. Clean, neat, and runs GREAT. No bloatware or MS BS. Probably the smoothest install of an OS that I've ever done.
I think I'll just keep it!
