And any old music will do…
My instinct is to stay put as Win 10 is suiting me fine and 2 of my 3 PC/laptops cannot run Win 11 it anyway.
Is my reasoning sound?

I cannot upgrade despite my pc being super fast even now. It was a hopped up thingy all those years ago but the old processor whilst fast and overclocked fails the test. I need no more power and a new PC of equiv power would still be well over a grand to allow me to upgrade the OS.
Not yet I think
That's my situation. I built this Core i7 system in 2013 and it's still pretty snappy. I'll put off changing as long as is reasonably practical.
Very similar to me, my processor is a 2014 4th gen Haswell i7-4790K clocked to 4.5 GHz with a water cooler
I'm a cheapskate and my current box is an ex-corporate Dell Optiplex 7010 i5 3570 3.4 GHz Quad Core with 8GB DDR3 RAM, 500 GB SATA Hard Drive and 120 GB SSD, whatever all that means. When I ran the MS test on it a while ago it said I couldn't run Win 11. Is this true, or is there a work around? I really don't want the hassle of a new box.
I dislike Windows but feel I need to keep a desk top box running it for old stuff I can't do on a Chromebook, Android tablet or iPhone, or LINUX which I've got on the box.
