I upgraded to see if I liked Windows 10. It turns out that I do. I still have my valid Windows 7 licenses. I can put Windows 7 back on my computers any time I like. Since the upgrade was free I saw no reason not to check it out.

If I run into trouble that I can't fix, then there is Windows 7 to fall back on at any time. As it happens, I haven't run into any serious problems. Some people have. It just depends on the individual system and what is installed on it.

Subject: Re: [PCBUILD] Windows 10 update

I am writing to ask the experts why they are upgrading to Win 10 at all.

I am running Win 7 32bit and it is very stable.  Why move to a less mature
OS from a known reliable OS? I must be missing something here so that
is why I am asking.
