Windows 11 officially requires Secure Boot and TPM 2.0, but can easily be run with just TPM 1.2, and with some effort even without TPM. All the other system requirement increases (like single to dual core, 2 to 4 GB RAM, etc.) don't really play a role for any recently built PC anyway.

But incorrectly quoted as "Microsoft promised...". It was one low-tier Microsoft employee who said it once, in a side note of a conference talk that was not about the future of Windows.

Besides, if you want to win a complex court case, it certainly helps to have more than a few million dollars, so you can hire more of the best lawyers and let them prepare for longer time. But at some point, more money gets useless, and the stock value of your company isn't even money that you could spend on anything.

If you're talking about specific models, sure. But if you ask a group of people "Who's here by bicycle today?" the ones that came with an e-bike would raise their hands, too.

Bicycle means two wheels, so a motorbike technically is a bicycle, too.
But e-bikes are closer to non-e-bikes than to motorcycles in terms of components, looks and propulsion.

Well, e-bikes are bicycles, too.

Of the current 16 games, 11 are shareware/demos. Only Beneath a Steel Sky, One Must Fall 2097, The Black Cauldron, The Lost Vikins and Supaplex are full versions (as those games have been released to public domain at one point).

It wants a code for level selection. You get the code for level 2 once you finish level 1, and so on. So just start with level 1 (F1).

Doom is just the shareware version, just like most of the others (some already called with that fancy modern name "demo"). Some are freeware, some have been released into public domain after they went out of sale.

If you check it out, don't forget to have a look atthe somewhat hidden 3D mode. Though well made, the 2D mode is just a Google-Maps-like view, and the 3D mode is entirely different.

Mostly because they have to wait for Half-Life 3 in order not to confuse the customers.

Pro: This looks exactly like the original Dungeon Keeper that I loved. Contra: This looks exactly like a game from the 90s.
