Direct storage API baked into the driver and OS level services, and auto-HDR coming to PC.

Huh. Huuuuuh. I might be paying closer attention to it after all.

At least it's a free upgrade. I wouldn't have put it past Microsoft to put a price tag on it.

Wasn't Windows 10 supposed to be the "last" and just continually upgraded?

Supposedly it's going to require TPM 2.0 as well, which would exclude support for a lot of older computers

I don't trust their claims of a free upgrade. Technically it'll be a free upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11, much in the same way it was a free upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10. You don't actually own a license to the operating system; they're just unlocking it for your use. In that respect, we don't own Windows 10, therefore we would have to pay for Windows 11.
