Just wasted my time reading the FAQs in the link of the article. The answer to every FAQ was, “upgrade to Windows 10”. (Of course.)

Well, yeah... I, too, expected that to be the default answer.

The main/only value of that Q&A was to get people thinking about what the ramifications of sticking with Win7 would be. In my line of work, I’m constantly confronted with users who, though they use a computer every day, really have no clue what’s going on.

Kinda like me with cars. Prior to 10 years ago, I maintained nearly everything myself, repairing the suspension, rebuilding the carburetor*, etc. Now about all I can do is repair the brakes and swap tires around — everything else under the hood has become some form of black magic.

* Remember carburetors?
