   Can we push to switch those PCs to #Linux instead of tossing them into a landfill?

     @taxorubio @Oslugr these computers are not obsolete, Microsoft just decided to prevent them from running Windows 11.
     
     I am suggesting to help people keep their very capable computers functional by replacing the "expired" Windows 10 with Linux.
