Someone who doesn't want Windows 10 also likely doesn't want Windows 8. They are likely sticking with a non-supported Windows 7, and so I'm with Microsoft on this one. Personally, I'm hoping things like this drives more people to Linux to make it a truly valid alternative for average users.
- Silhouette 9y agoWindows 7 is supported until 2020 for security updates, which is the main thing that matters. And given that Windows 10 only just overtook Windows 7 in popularity according to reports this week, the idea that Windows 7 is some sort of legacy system just doesn't fly, no matter how much Microsoft might wish it so. They made a turkey with Windows 8. They made a turkey with most editions of Windows 10. There is a reason so many of us have been holding out on 7 and/or switching platforms over the past few years, and the reason is simply that more recent Windows releases haven't been attractive enough to use them instead.
