I would have been happy if they stopped at Windows XP.
“I would have been happy if they stopped at Windows XP.”
I had a perfectly good XP box. About 4 years ago I changed a drive or sound card and that, after end of support, was the killer. There was no way I could find to go back. Bill Gates gave me three days to re-authenticate and BAM, gone.
I can still read the drive elsewhere, but never could boot again.
