Here is something you don't hear everyday. I thought it pertained more to Windows software than in the news section but I'll move this to news if anyone wants me to.

AMD Ryzen 9 7950X,  Corsair Mp700 Pro M.2, 64GB Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5  X670E Steel Legend, MSI RTX 4090 Associate Code: H5U80QBH6BH0AXF. I am NOT an employee of EVGA

    Interesting move by Microsoft for this. I wonder how it will pan out.

    BTW, you put hardware news and releases into the "Computer Industry News" section, but you put Windows 10 news in the "General Software" section. This doesn't make much sense to me. By your logic all hardware news should go into the "General Hardware" section.
    It's just a little confusing.
