@halva reminds me of a 10 year old laptop review that was using up to date windows 11, and windows + edge itself crashed and froze multiple times but ran high end benchmarks without freezing or crashing (albeit at the worst score imaginable.)

Windows 11, Edge, and in particular Windows Explorer crashes and freezes frequently on *1 year old high end* laptops.
Your point is?
@halva

(Okay, those are work issued laptops, with whatever corporate spyware they came with)

@timjan @halva my point is that microsoft should use their own software on a variety of hardware, your remark doesn't change that. idk where this hostility is coming from.

My apologies, that was not what I intended.
What I tried to convey was that I find that Microsoft has stability issues in general.
(And so do other systems, I'm not denying that)
