The end of Wintel business model was over so long ago that the current generation of Windows users don't understand what people are talking about, e.g. "Oh, this is just upgrade from 22h1 to 22h2, not Windows 11", LOL.

In the old days of Wintel game, this is when the update will consume so much of your computer resource that you have no choice but upgrade the hardware then restart the cycle of new computer new windows OS, every a few years. It stopped around 10 years ago after Apple woke everybody up. I'm still using my iphone X from 5 years ago and on the latest iOS upgrade, compared to my kids iphone 14 I don't find anything terrible at all on iphone X. Windows has since dropped the "Wintel" model and follow Apple's steps, well, until now.
