Just upgrade by laudablepuss 05/24/2016, 7:29am PDT
I think operating systems as a service is stupid, same with software as a service, but it's the dream that Ellison and Gates and those guys have finally brought about and now we live in that world. The good news is windows 10 is pretty good, does not require better hardware than what you have, and will be supported farther into the future than your windows 7 install. You'll be fine. Just turn off the ad and location stuff that you don't want, if you don't want those things.

Combating Win 10 fear is a big part of my job lately. Everybody's newest hobby is panicking over the upgrade.
