Desktop Optional

Windows 11 shows up with a novel novel-length list of requirements that would make NASA blush, while Linux just sits there with its cute penguin face basically saying "Got electricity? Cool, we're good to go." After 20+ years in tech, I've seen Microsoft turn simple OS upgrades into hardware shopping sprees more times than I care to count. Meanwhile, Linux is over there running on everything from supercomputers to your abandoned toaster. The "optional" electricity bit is just *chef's kiss*.
