> Right now, that argument seems to be simultaneously "It's critical enough for Microsoft to explicitly deny running Windows 11 on it" and "It's not critical enough that Intel and AMD should do something about it, except to sell more stuff." The first part of that isn't right. Microsoft decided it wasn't worth it for them to support 6 year old chips on their new OS. People with older hardware can continue to run Windows 10. The two operating systems are almost the same anyway. Microsoft's decision is not an indicator that you're in much danger from Meltdown.
