Next year Windows 10 goes End of Life. Microsoft will undoubtedly push windows 11 hard, but a lot of machines won’t support it leading to a few economic points of interest:

The demand for new machines will be high, driving up cost.

The supply of unsupported machines will be high, driving down the used market.

Are you all ready?

    simracing hardware

    Hmm. Like, pedals, throttle, steering wheel? That was an issue many years back, but most of that supports USB HID these days.

      Unfortunately, that’s really not true for most sim racing hardware. Lower-end Logitech and Thrustmaster stuff usually works fine, but you’re pretty much screwed once you go beyond that.

      Wheel and pedal’s work fine but headtracking seems to be a no go with my ghetto setup, Assetto Corsa (with Content Manager) is also a huge PIA to setup.
