Enjoy the Windows 10 Update Experience at London's O2
The new extreme sport: Windows Updates
Windows 10 has lingered on, even after its friends have gone, persistently displaying an update notification at London's O2 arena. The sign, advertising the venue and its activities, including an indoor skydiving experience, serves as a stark reminder of Windows 10's persistent presence. The sight of Windows 10's update notification is less than ideal for those considering the extreme sport of indoor skydiving, as such a notification could add an unexpected twist to the skydiving experience.
The O2 sign, while advertising a thrilling indoor skydiving activity, subtly highlights the ongoing struggle of Windows 10 against the more modern Windows 11. Statcounter data shows Windows 11 has a market share of just under 70%, while Windows 10 stubbornly holds at 30%. Despite Windows 10 leaving support last year, Microsoft offers Extended Security Updates (ESU) to keep the software functional until 2027 for commercial users.
The O2 sign, therefore, serves as a visible reminder that Windows 10 is not going anywhere soon, despite the advantages Windows 11 may have.
