Maybe it is worth saying that it isn't that it can't run on it, it is that Microsoft is trying to stop it from running on it. Two registry keys and 11 replaces 10 on anything 10 works on. But they don't want to tell anyone that.

But the premise is sound: to the end consumer they hear "buy a new computer" while the old one works fine, and the new ones price is starting to climb....
