Older machines are tested for Windows 11 but newer machines are not tested?
Hi, I have purchased multiple Alienware Laptops over the last decade and it is very disconcerting that Dell's product support stance is to test Alienware 17 R2, Alienware 17 R3 and Alienware 17 R4 in regards to Windows 11 compatibility and ignore the testing with the newer Alienware 17 R5. I think the Dell website is stating that this is true and it is not oversight. Well over year has passed, Is this really happening?

All new computers are built with the latest operating system-- Windows 11.

That's great but why would I buy a new Dell when my current Dell has an I7-8750H CPU and 2080TI? Microsoft says my laptop meets the specs for windows 11. But, Dell is not going to support driver updates on a laptop that isn't even 6 years old. Just seems wrong. Guess I will have to find a better vendor that provides quality driver support and device security.
