Matt,

  Windows 11 also eliminates 32-bit support. I can NOT see discarding
perfectly good working hardware and software, just to satisfy Microsoft
and their greedy bottom line. In short "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".

  What was my late Mom's computer, has Windows 10 32-bit on it, and that's
what the BBS is on. I have a Lenovo laptop with Windows 10 64-bit...and
while the Lenovo will upgrade to Windows 11, the BBS computer will not.
