[CQ-Contest] [QSOParty] STOP!!! Don't be running out to buy a Windows 11 computer yet. . .

[John Geiger]

I updated an older Lenovo computer with 16GB of RAM but a slow processor 
to a system called Tiny 11, a stripped down version of windows 11.  I 
have experience no slower performance or issues with it.  It runs as 
good or even better than it did before.
