Yes, it has been a long wait, but Windows 11 finally arrives on the 5th of October, 2021.

As well as a beautiful new look, the increased functionality and additional features really are something to look forward to. Microsoft has made the whole Windows experience more intuitive, more user-friendly and more adaptable to our changed way of working.

We are sure you cannot wait to get started. But is your business ready for the upgrade?

Hopefully you already know about the hardware requirements to run Windows 11. The minimum specifications are:

• 1GHz processor with at least two cores. Intel: eight-generation or newer; AMD Ryzen 3 or better.
• 4GB of RAM.
• 64GB of storage.
• TPM 2.0 (an inbuilt security chip)

and that is just to run basic functionality.

Upgrades to existing machines will start to roll out soon after. But are your computers ready to upgrade or will you need to invest in some new devices? If you need new hardware but you are not ready to invest in it just yet, that is fine as Microsoft won’t stop support for Windows 10 until 2025.

Further information is here.
