Dear Microsoft: please don’t mess this up
ANOTHER MONTH GOES BY and there’s no sign of a crack in the weird wall of silence around Windows 11. As I write, it is exactly one month before the newly announced official release date for Windows 11, yet from the state of the preview builds—both dev and beta—you wouldn’t know it.
