I am trying to get around my PCI people on W10 having
to upgrade all the hardware for W11 just to have W11
expire in two years again

Be nice to just do one upgrade

October 2025 is EOS for Win10 22H2, support for earlier versions of Win10 
has already ended.

Windows initial release date, end of support
Win7   2009, 2020
Win8   2012, 2023
Win8.1 2013, 2023
Win10  2015, 22H2(2025)

Win11  2021, 23H2(2025), 24H2(2026)

Win12 -  tbd
  The safest prediction at this time, would be W12 features/bits included 
in Win11 24H2(or later) followed by Win12 initial release
  - since Win12 has yet to be officially announced, fall 2025 may be 
possible...but with 24H2 EOS(2026), a 2026 date is also possible.

  Also of potential importance...Win 12 may be limited to CoPilot+ system 
requirements, which would also indicate a Win11 25H2 release before the 
next Windows version(12 in 2025 to coincide with 25H2 or later[2026]).

What about hardwire requirements? Every W10 I've tested didn't have the
right hardware for an upgrade to W11, let alone W12.

When you needed it, the W12 might not be "ripe".

Staggered is the right answer.

Do you remember how long it took to release 24H2 ?
It took forever. They might "finish" W12, then have
an extended testing period.

No it was released on time or some would say before time.

YYH2 versions are always released late September to early November and 
it has always been the case.

Talking of W12 is premature because Microsoft has other priorities. 
Microsoft wants to rebrand everything as CoPilot. For example MO365 is 
now called "Microsoft 365 Copilot"

<https://www.windowslatest.com/2025/01/18/microsoft-just-renamed-office-to-microsoft-365-copilot-on-windows-11-for-everyone/>

<https://www.windowslatest.com/2024/12/18/microsoft-365-app-rebranding-to-microsoft-365-copilot-causing-more-confusion-on-windows/>

It looks like Microsoft has become a non-entity in the tech industry. 
Did anyone notice that Microsoft was not represented at the the Trump's 
inauguration? All the big boys from the tech industry were there but 
nobody from Microsoft. What the hell is going on? Is it because 
Microsoft refused to pay USD 1 Million to Trump's inauguration fund?

(As a New user of Win 11 upgrading from Win-7) What is Copilot all 
about?? Am I likely to Want/Need to use anything "Copilot" rather than 
just plain old ordinary Win 11??

It is an AI that monitors what you do, reports everything back to
M$, M$ sell this information to advertisers and others, then CoPilot
will start popping up s*** for your to buy, based on what the
advertisers pay them

CoPilot is another attempt by M$ to change the user from the
customer to the product.  Get rid of it.

This isn't happening right now.

The current CoPilot Demo Version is just that, a demo quality version.
There is also a version you pay for, up to a couple hundred per month.
And that would be for business usage perhaps.

What I don't understand, is how fitting what is in essence a
"paid version" to Office, will do the user any good. To have
your document re-written as a summary, you could do that with
a number of tools. The AI they're using, is "best" at writing
summaries. There are other tasks it is not good at.

If they switch on the advertising NOW, that will spoil the business plan.

I have got a few customers that get five ads pop up on
their log on screen.  This explains why I see it sometimes
and not others

Have you disabled stuff in Notifications ?

I would guess most advertising leakage is coming
in through existing marketing tunnels.

They always use deceptive language of the "features"
that are doing that, to increase the challenge.

I did have the "like what you see" stuff come
back to some lock screen, even though I thought
that stuff had been successfully turned off.
