Microsoft was punched in the face 16 years ago the iMac was able to install Win11 and run smoothly

Recently, however, a blogger embarrassed Microsoft by successfully installing a vintage iMac purchased in 2006 on the Wiindows 11 system and running smoothly. This antique iMac carries the Intel Core 2 Duo processor with a 1.83GHz frequency, and the graphics card is the on-board integrated graphics card GMA 950, which is obviously a world away from Microsoft's upgrade standards.

Although during the installation process, there were some graphics problems due to GPU failures, but from the display after the installation, Win11 can still maintain normal operation on this "weather-beaten" old device. I have to say that the success of this attempt undoubtedly makes Microsoft's statement that it does not let users upgrade Windows 11 because of possible problems has become a bit embarrassing.
