These downvotes are not hatred of Windows, it's the weird statement of "Are people really using computers this old?". Like yes, a lot of people don't need a computer, don't want a new computer, or don't have the money for a new computer. 6 years ago isn't to long even, I built my PC around when Ryzen released(2017), it still works great.
