The lock out felt extremely artificial and arbitrary.

it is.

same story, I have a 13 year old laptop that was a fucking beast back then, and to be honest, with 16GB RAM and SSD it still is.

Now I guess according to Microsoft, it's no better than a banana peel in the garbage can.

Apple is no better. I'm still using a 2013 Macbook pro as a laptop and I can't upgrade the OS and slowly apps are failing, office will no longer update, and it won't let me move to the latest OS despite the laptop still being a powerhouse with the same 16gb of ram and ssd.
