I must say, this guy from ComputerWorld has got it totally right regarding Windows 10!

Again.....so much for your "modern computer" theory...
It isnt theory, it is a practice. i bought 3 computers in the last year, all of them was with win 10, and all of them do not have drivers for win7.
But if it is easer to you to think different, i dont mind. Anyway you probably will remember my "modern computer theory" when will buy new comps with windows in future.
And im not saying that xp lovers isnt exist, they do, as BDSM lovers for example... I also know that some people loves to use DOS
But Im talking about Microsoft politics, not about original preferences of the people, and not about me and you. So please do not go to personalities just try to understand what i want to say

I don't like Windows 10 because of its updates!!! Maybe it's a trick of Bill Gates and Co but sometimes after the system has been updated my Wi-Fi goes crazy and refuses to work.

Those business that still use XP are paying MS for continued updates. Us common folk don't have that opportunity.

Methinks MS could take lessons from NASA. After all they have rovers on Mars that are years past their prime and still going strong. An orbiter whose life span was measured in months now has years on it's life. Kepler was only slated for a short run and what happened, it surpassed it's due date. Anyone notice a trend here?

That really did/does aggravate me. I mean, MS is obviously doing the updates anyway, they could have at least offered them to the general public for some reasonable maintenance fee. Instead. so many people had to either buy new computers or else run unpatched XP.

Pretty much but even MS is not immune to Karma. Hint hint...

Question. Since I love Win 7 and intend to use it for a long time with the understanding updates will stop in2020, If I have good security and antivirus I should be fine,right?
If only there was a way to backup everything, including updates in case an install were necessary after 2020.
Win 10 is too complicated for me. I just like simple. IMHO.

....besides, I don't know where you got this "modern computer theory" from, that wasn't anywhere in my comment.
I was replying to comment #1 in the thread. It had nothing to do with you.
