I'm curious what the specs of the old and new desktop computer were, and how many years old the old one was.
I upgraded my desktop PC after 5 years, from a decent Core i7 CPU of back then to a Zen 4 based CPU now, and it's 3x faster for single threaded things (if I measure walltime of things like javascript minification), and has 2x more cores/threads on top of that.
Maybe they mean the OS feels slower or something instead? Or made a very uninformed buying decision.
