I’m still running Windows ME. How will this announcement affect future ME upgrades?

Every time they push a 10 update, something breaks on my system and it is unusable for hours to find the workaround or until I give up and uninstall the update. Meanwhile all of my win7 systems hum along happily with zero issues.

Having tried W10 in a VB on older hardware, I’ll just say F W10 for the long run.
Unix and derivatives seems to be a better deal, as long in the tooth as it is. I was always in favor of BeOS.

I’m using Linux Mint Cinnamon. I am as happy as a clam. I will pass.

W10 upgrade is laughable for me, I just downgraded from W7 to XP and love it!
IMO it is impossible to keep an internet connected computer bug free and free from hacking, so just what’s the difference, might as well use something you like.
My main data computer though is W7 64 bit and is never ever on the net. I transfer data between them with a small memory stick.

Do you actually have to have AT programs on your PC for this or just say you do?

I’m looking for a free downgrade-to7 offer. Screw Windows 10.
