That's a shame; I've been running Windows 10 32-bit on the BBS for some time 
to keep my old DOS apps running. There's nothing I've read that says you 
need to upgrade 10 to 11, 10 is supported through 2025 and should be 
sufficient through then. By 2025, the hardware my BBS is running on will be 
18 years old!
