I think Microsoft has lost interest in trouble shooting hardware drivers. I 
think their money (and time) is being spent on developing AI crap. It 
definitely seems to be their priority.

Even SoftMaker is touting AI for their newest office suite. They advertise 
it as a "feature," to me it simply means I'll never upgrade to a newer 
version.
