Windows 12 could be another costly upgrade for supporters of Microsoft operating systems. A new report reveals that the AI-dominated OS will require AMD and Intel CPUs with a dedicated NPU. Possibly surfacing in late 2026, the follow-up to Windows 11 may also rely on subscriptions.
I went from 10 to Mint back in January.
Pretty easy switchover. Very few issues. As a lifelong Windows user, installing apps, keeping everything updated and backed up could not be easier. Only issue I ran into during install was my WiFi device would not show up. Had to turn off fast boot and then power cycle the system and literally pull the plug to completely reset the adapter. Other than that, everything worked perfectly “out of the box”. No fucked up driver install process. No hour long updates. It literally worked perfectly within minutes. All the shit I went through with every single Windows install honestly feels like a cruel fucking joke right now when I type it out.
