I don't get how - if MS will give them support until 2023 then it means 10yrs support which for those low end PCs is enough. And if somebody wants to use it after that date - LXDE/XFCE might be better anyway for this type of HW.

It is better. I bought an Intel Compute Stick when they first came out. Used Windows 8 on it just long enough for someone, Ian Morrison(http://www.linuxium.com.au/ http://www.linuxium.com.au/), to get the Linux version on the internet. Besides some occasional wireless issues, mostly Bluetooth now, Lubuntu 17.04 works great. I use it on vacations all the time just plug it into the hotel TV and load up Netflix and wait for the buffering to finish over the overloaded hotel Wifi.
