Windows 11 is a major regression.

10 was better, but I’d pay for a modern version of windows 2kpro UI. Bring back msn messsenger.

It’s basically a gaming box, everything else is on a Mac or Linux machine, all on my desk.

Actually, it is a substantially worse gaming box too once you've used SteamOS/Bazzite. All it's good for right now is windows-only legacy software and anti-cheat implementations for the time being.

And somewhat excel because excel is badly implemented on mac

100%.

I'd pay for this, compatible with Windows 11 apps, but basically works like NT4.

Done. This is how easy it is to make money off you people.

honestly Linux has gotten pretty good even for gaming, I set up a Linux (Fedora) on my primary gaming rig as a lark and figured I would go back to windows but I have not really had the need to and some games actually even run better on Linux it seems.
