Now before all the Windows 10 fans jump down my throat...

This isn't about whether Windows 10 is a good operating system. I'm running Windows 10 at work. It's a fine operating system.

It's about whether Microsoft should be automatically converting users' systems -- which had been left alone on purpose -- without the users' permission or knowledge.

I do NOT want Windows 10; not even if they paid me to take it!

I'm not a techie, my 7 does everything and more than I need it to do as it is. What's so "great" about 10 anyway ?

This is an article based on presumptions. But it is not true. This is not going to happen.

Let’s wait until it is either proven or denied before going off.

Knowing Microsoft legal as I do, there’s no way they’d approve this. The lawsuits would be off the charts, because if only 1 out of 100 failed to upgrade properly (which is rough ballpark figure), Microsoft could lose billions of $ in court.

How well does Win10 work in a VirtualBox? Will it remain contained in there? Are there 32 and 64 bit versions? Can a 32 bit Win7 get upgraded to 64 bit Win10?

I have a tablet - 32 gb - that simply can't hold what it has and the Windows upgrades that have been downloaded.

I have it strictly for the grandkids to play with.

Now it has so little free space that I have just tossed it onto the pile of things I will get to one day to fix.
