Thats a myth created by microsoft to force people to buy windows 10 no matter if they want it or not. It is an artificial limitation - all they did was stop driver development for the various peripherals (nic, usb, etc) and add a windows update blocker which can be removed. > Question: > Are Windows 7 based AppVMs supported on "Windows10-only" hardware? > Thank's for your feedback! Yeah of course its not like new cpus lack old instruction sets or what not. Although I would recommend you instead purchase a system without ME/PSP such as the owner controlled libre firmware KGPE-D16/KCMA-D8. New x86 is dead for freedom/security - let us hope that qubes is soon ported to OpenPOWER so we can run on a libre firmware TALOS 2 (OpenPOWER is currently the only owner controlled cpu arch) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
