$30 to not have to deal with Windows 11 for another year feels like the deal of the century.

I love how they're like 'but you won't get new features!'. They may have still not figured out that nobody cares about 'new features' being stuffed into the OS, but I guess you can't have everything.

I think it's fairly optimistic to believe that they'll stop bugging you with the Windows 11 upgrade even if you do pay $30.
