I get a pop-up on my PC that I have a 2 day offer to upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10, for free? Yes or No?

Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages?

Upgrading is free and I can go back after trying it.

Absolutely!! Once August comes around, you'll have to pay for Windows 10- it totally doesn't make sense to lose out on the free upgrade. And once you upgrade to Windows 10, all future upgrades will be free as well. I really enjoy using Windows 10.

I would take smileurjewish's advice. But I am still using XP, and I am really considering trying out Linux. I really don't like the subscriber model that Microsoft and apple use, I think it encourages disposable thinking.

Things should be built to last, and not replaced if they still work.

(xp doesn't really still work, I am in denial)

But you should take SUJ's advice.

I didn't. I paid extra to have windows 7 on my laptop. By the time I need a new laptop it will come installed only with Windows 10 and I won't have to pay for it. I hate everything about the new windows and think it's less secure, but I'm a real techie, the average person doesn't know the diff and doesn't care. G

I have one laptop with 7 that I am leaving as it will die before it becomes obsolete, IMO, and we like 7 if we have to use Windows. My desktop has 8 as the dual boot which is horrible, and I'm 99% done with the upgrade because 10 is much, much better than 8. I'm still happy with Ubuntu as my main OS Smile
