I am predicting this now: Windows 11 will be the worst Microsoft OS since Vista and 8, and it's all because of 11's stupid requirements.
Really Microsoft what the hell are you thinking, cutting off all processors made before 2017 all based on stupid requirements no one asked for.
TPM is a joke, really it is, as the only thing it really does is stop keyloggers, which is something you can do inside the OS if you knew how.
It doesn't stop malware, or viruses or ransomware and as secure as a motorbike protected by a keychain.
And ask any Linux user how much security secure boot offers, hello on Linux now with secure boot, bite me Microsoft.
The only reason Microsoft is doing this is to sell people new computers, they are desperate for money and think doing this will lure people to new machines in fear of their current machines being obsolete, it's a scam and I will not stand for it and nether should you.
If I were the Windows community I would let as many people know that this is a scam, and that there are alternatives that are not Macs.
Like I dunno... Linux's mint, it's free, easy to use and a 5-year-old can use it, it works for most hardware and if you don't need overpriced software like photoshop or games it's fine.
Or sticking it to Microsoft and dualboot with Windows 10 and only use windows once every so often in protest.
Lets show Microsoft not to mess around with its users.

By the way Windows 10 will be supported for a few more years. By that time nearly all PCs and laptops will have TPM capability. 
 

One of the major complaints against Windows 10 was security. Those complaints came from the enterprise customers and also normal consumers. Windows 11 is using TPM to increase security. It certainly won't eliminate hackers 100 percent but it will further mitigate their present hacking methods. 

I think the TPM requirement should be optional instead. If not utilized have windows installer give a "Click here if you understand and accept the risks" for liability reasons...
 
they use that kind of thing all over for other 'security' issues...why not here?
