Old laptop is still working, so far so good.

I've wiped it and installed Windows 11. First impressions are that it's going to be fine, it's fairly close to Windows 10 and the differences are minor. Windows 11 feels rounder (like, all the corners have got a border radius of something), and my first impressions are probably trained by the stupid keyboard on that laptop (I paid extra for a "mechanical" keyboard, boy was I dumb).

The key spacing is different/wrong, and I'm constantly typing one character to the right of where I should be Also the Windows key doesn't work (nothing happens when I press it, haven't investigated any deeper yet), which is bloody irritating given how much I use Windows snap.

I'll clone down a couple of repos tomorrow and see how I get on.
