Some things that have caught my attention & made me buy a 2nd hard drive to eventually get around to installing v11 & dual booting. I don't trust 11 based on what I've heard from friends, colleagues & Microsoft's multi-decade track record of rotating between a solid OS & experimental OS not ready for production.

* Dev Drive - faster partition of your drive made specifically for software dev work. Also attempting to create a nice widget screen for GitHub & others.

* Apple iMessage Connection - Ability to send messages from your Apple phone. I've heard this is missing a lot of necessary features though & is really 1/4 baked. A lot of that may be due to Apple more than Microsoft.

* Live captions - haven't tried it but sounds like Windows 11 will create captions off any audio played, even offline. I love Edge's read aloud mode & reader mode. Windows is winning the accessibility game in my opinion & I'm not a person that requires these to function. They just improve my life. Another accessibility feature is voice typing via a shortcut. I probably won't use this often but nice to see & may come in handy on a laptop for me.

* Android Apps - haven't tried it but sounds like Android apps work in Windows now.

* Different backgrounds on virtual desktops. I'm hoping there is other improvements to virtual desktops. I'm a huge user & I rarely see the background but I'm glad to hear they're dedicating time here.

* Test the different AI features they come up with.

Better memory management. Seems to be handling the same workload with less swapping than window 10. Did an in place upgrade so my workflow and setup was exactly the same.
