    Hi Michael,
    Currently XPression does not officially support Windows 11. It typically takes 12-18 months after a new Windows release for XPression to officially support a new Windows OS. 

    The only showstopper issue we've had with Windows 11 in our tests is with the XPression Project Server. XPression Designer and XPression Studio + Matrox cards haven't had any issues so far. We have not started testing our GO lineup with Windows 11 yet. 

    Regardless, Windows 11 isn't officially supported, so if you run into issues after upgrading we can't guarantee the issue will be resolved in a timely manner, and we will recommend downgrading to Windows 10. I think you will be fine if you upgrade, but it will be at your own risk.

    What laptops does Ross recommend for Studio Go!
    Trying to get help from Dell - Alienware 17 no longer comes with Win 10 Pro
    Below is a option but I'm not sure on GFX card being compatible and such.

    Our current GO platform is using the DELL Mobile Precision 7760 Laptop with Windows 10 Pro. We order the one with the RTX A4000. 
    For a single channel go system you could certain go one level from that and get the RTX A3000. 
    The Precision lineup does usually cost more than the Alienware models.

    No. I have Xpression GO running on an Alienware with Win11 as well. The only issue I found (which is not a Windows issue), a project I worked on in Designer x64 wouldn't load in GO x64 so I had to load the x86 version of GO for the project to work.
