Just a few days ago, almost suddenly, microsoft launched the physical version and in the box of its Windows 11 operating system, that version that appeared several months ago. Now, many content channels on YouTube have made review videos with their first impressions. There is a lot to talk about and various curiosities, even regarding Windows 10.
The availability of Windows 11 boxes is reportedly very low key. There has been no official announcement about this version (as there was, for example, with Windows 10). It is worth mentioning that these physical editions are no longer presented in optical disc format (CD, DVD, Blu-Ray), much less on floppy disks, but rather in a practical USB flash memory ready to connect to any computer.

The curiosity of the Windows 11 USB
According to the Genbeta portal, whose staff acquired a copy of this new physical edition, the fake offers of this version have been circulating on the web for a few months, so now it is necessary to buy them through Microsoft’s own official portal, both in your website as on platforms like amazon.
The box contains both a pen drive as an activation code, although it goes without saying that one of the great reasons to acquire this edition is the cover itself, which fits perfectly into any collection.
It might seem that the only object behind this launch would be that, since a detail would reveal that Microsoft has not paid much attention to the product, at least to what comes inside the package. As confirmed by well-known youtuber Michael MJD, the included USB maintains the windows logo windows 10.

The Windows logo, an error for the collection
The Windows 11 logo changed to a completely straight (and perspectiveless) shape, very similar to the logo they adopted back in the 90s. Even so, the Windows 11 USBs that arrive in the physical version maintain the old isotype of the brand in 2015.
It is a curiosity that raises certain suspicions, such as the possibility that microsoft has been left with a good part of physical versions of Windows 10 unsold, or the simple fact that they wanted to save on physical printing mechanisms.
