I think the mangled English there is suggesting that some people don't care enough, and other people have enough money (to buy Windows).

Not that it matters because who the fuck pays for Windows anyway? OEMs do, but not normal people. Everything since like Windows 7 has been a free upgrade, and normies get a new PC more often than that so get a copy with it.

OEMs do

And they pass that on to the consumer lol.

and other people have enough money

Those usually buy apple stuff, so that's probably who it tried to mention

Not all computers are eligible for a free upgrade, my work desktop (windows 10) got a pop up about ending support & that my computer isn't eligible for an upgrade to windows 11.

Edited to add: this post is so old idk why I commented. Sorry lol
