You need a new phone and laptop and faster Internet every couple of years because they can't be bothered to build better software because the people building it have a new phone and laptop and Internet every couple of years.

I always thought Microsoft's business plan was to bloat their operating system and Office so you needed a new computer that came with ... ... ... new MS OS and MS Office. They forced you to buy new software by making their old software slower and slower, so you had to buy better hardware that came with more of their bloated software.

I don't use MS office any more. I use Libre Office. I'd love to get away from MS Windows, but my work software only runs on it.

We use Linux Mint, for the house computer, but it has a dual boot with Windows because of such limitations.

CPUs and virtualization tech like wine have gotten far enough I might stop giving windows stuff bare metal access at this point and keep it in virtualization (VMs / compatibility layers)
