I don't understand what the word "still" is doing in that
headline. Those PCs can't upgrade because their hardware isn't
supported.  "Still" suggests that Microsoft is working on a fix so
that eventually they will support Win11. Nothing in this article
suggests anything like that is in the works, and as far as I know MS
hasn't relaxed the requirements since Win11 first became available.

There's a kernel of news here, in that Win11 isn't going to achieve
widespread adoption until a lot of legacy systems get upgraded, a
process that will take years. But you'd never know it from that
clickbait headline.
