A number of Intel employees (and one helpful retired one) have commented that Sandy Bridge graphics and 6-series boards will never be supported on Windows 10. This is an important bit of information and something I wish Microsoft would discover. But it begs the question: are Sandy Bridge graphics and 6-series boards outliers or should the statement really be, Sandy Bridge graphics and 6-series boards AND ALL PREVIOUS GENERATIONS AND BOARDS will never be supported on Windows 10?
I have no intention of moving to W-10 so this is not a personal crusade on my part, but people often ask me if they should move to W-10 and I'd like to have as complete of an answer as I can give them. I'm always surprised by people running ancient hardware, especially boards with GMA graphics.
