If only Microsoft had built an OS that was highly-resistant to viruses and other malware... but no -

And with the forced end to Windows 10, millions of users are left with computers that won’t receive even basic updates.

On the other hand - it takes resources to produce updates - even for security. But again, here we are with a system that requires way too much upkeep.

Updates!!

Slooowly I turned...

I loathe updates. Unlike most people I don't spend a lot of time online, don't go to strange sites much, rarely email. Updates are nothing but a hassle to me and they always seem to happen when I'm in the middle of something and don't appreciate an interruption.

Nor do I have a problem with buying another computer, I still have most of them going back to the Win98 desktop with the anvil-size monitor. Most still work, or serve as giant usb's.

All I'm asking for is to be ignored by Google, Microsoft and whatever else is following me around with another shot of "what's-best-for-you."

If they want to improve the world why don't they make a decent printer?
