I upgraded windows 7 on one computer to windows 10 and now time for the 
learning curve. The other computers that should be able to get it can't 
until I fix something, they couldn't get windows 7 SP1 either so I have to 
restore them both. The netbook, I don't care it's running way slow anyway 
and is about 5 years old, it's time to factory restore that one. The laptop 
I usually use,I hate to put that to factory for an upgrade I don't even 
think I like yet. I may keep the netbook and laptop with windows 7 SP1 for a 
while.
