Welcome new members


Hi everyone.

I came here to ask a question about a windows 11 Pro install and then discovered the amazing amount of knowledge people on here have.
I just built a new PC to run windows 11 due to system requirements and I have been using windows ever since it was released back in the 1980's

Yes that makes me old!

Well that is all. :)

Thermionic valve expert perhaps?
Still had a valve computer at university in 1968/9. It was made about 30 years before and some kept it operational. Was fun.

Impressive and would keep you warm in winter! BTW the Soviet Union continued to invest in valve technology which is radiation hard.

Yes, EMP resistant too. BTW, valve technology is still alive and used. High power radio transmitters still use them for for finals to antenna, no transistor can be used for kilowatts strong transmitters. Home amplifiers with tubes are still made and cost a lot, they say it produces warm sound.

Greetings, all

I'm new to this forum as my last laptop succumbed to a fall thanks to my cat.

I have a new Dell G5 with W11Pro on the way and I'm what might be called curious but not very knowledgeable. My hope is that when the new machine arrives I'll be able to quickly and easily dispense with bloat and nag ware that comes on new machines.

I recognize a few folks from the 7 and 10 forums and in all likelihood will read much more than I post.

Thank you all for this valuable resource
