It’s always been this way…
A long long time ago, when I got my first PC, one single MB of ram was $100, so having 4mb was pretty boss! But then win95 dropped and demanded 8mb of ram to run anywhere near half decent, this happens with every Gen of new windows platforms

But Windows 95 didn’t refuse to install itself on hardware that otherwise was capable of running it. Windows 11 will not install (without jumping through hacky hoops that could break at any time without warning) on a computer that doesn’t have TPM 2.0 even though it can run just fine on computers without it.

You’re right, you could install on a 386, but it ran like shit on anything less than a pentium.
