Yeah, I read some of the car plants closed down temporarily. One of them has 40,000+ finished vehicles sitting around just waiting for chips to be put in them to make them functional.

So prices are going thru the roof for many computer parts.

It's not just computers that are hit by the chip shortage. Anything that has chips is affected even car production.

Mine has a modest little AMD Athlon. It ran my test install of 11 for two months without issue.

The Athlon is not listed as being affected these speed issues, but perhaps WU is being overly hesitant just because I have an AMD of any sort?

Think it's just Ryzen processors that are affected.

Yea my point was more they are dealing with issues, AMD being one of them, and have paused the rollout. Nothing in writing, just past experiences.


Morning Charlie.

Afternoon Bree


I imagine MS has it hands full without offering anyone else Win 11.


Can you imagine buying a new computer with an AMD processor only to find Windows is hampering performance. Wow would I be miffed.

Hello Ken

Bot to motor.

I'm seeing ads all over for dealers offering top dollar on used cars.

When I took our Honda in for the AC issue, I was talking with the girl at the counter & she said "you have some very low mileage on your vehicle." (2017 Honda Civic with 10,300 miles). Had a sales guy walk up to me while I was waiting & ask me if I'd want to sell & that they could offer me a very good price for the car.

The lot was pretty sparse, barely any new cars on it.

Have a good day Ken, be safe.

I have to get some breakfast ready & take the dogs out.

Been a long time since we had any dogs & it's a weird deja vu to have them sitting there, staring at you while you eat.

You all take care & have a good, safe day.
