   DS>TW>DS>  I think I'll stay with Windows 7.   
      
   DS>TW>Sounds like a smart move to me. I upgraded top win 10 and have had   
   DS>TW>nothing but problems. Lots iof Screen Frezes and Blue Screen automatic   
   DS>TW>re-boots.   
   DS>TW>And recently on one of the re-boots the machien went back to Win 7 and   
   DS>TW>then about a week or so later re-booted to win10 again.   
   DS>TW>And that is not to mention the Stuped MS changes just for the sake of   
   DS>TW>change to make you thing you have something better.   
   DS>TW>Tok me several weeks btu I finalle got my desktop amnd start meny back   
   DS>TW>to the way I like them.   
      
   DS>  Micr0$0ft is interested ONLY in their bottom line, and feel they have the   
   DS>RIGHT to tell you what OS and browser you should run...and refuse to accept   
   DS>fact that "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".   
      
   You can say that again. They are worse then the "Robber Barons" of   
   Railroads and Oil in the 1800's   
      
   DS>  You know it angers them no end that folks are running OS's like MacIntosh   
   DS>(Apple) and Linux, using browsers like Google Chrome and Firefox rather than   
   DS>Internet Explorer (or whatever the deal is now in Windows 10), and using sea   
   DS>engines such as Google Chrome rather than Bing.   
      
   I have played w2ith Linux once in a wgile and my brain jsut refuses dto   
   understand it. Their cryptic Command line, Necessary to to do far to   
   many things, is a nightmare.   
   A couple of months back I tried it again with the Mint Cinnamon on a   
   laptop. I use a swap the hard drive dual boot system. I also had a Win   
   10 hard drive for it.   
   Someone broke into hte house and stole the laptop and when I replaced it   
   just for fun I put the LInux Hard drive into it to see what would   
   happen. It booted up and ran just fine. Then I tried it in my Win 10   
   desktop and the same thing, runs without a hickup.   
   So now I have a backup for using the internet when the Win 10 instal   
   blows up in my face, Which is still screen freezing on me and doing blue   
   screen self boots   
   I was suspecting the Mother baord but since Liuux runs jsut fine I am   
   not sure.   
      
   DS>  Believe me, if I wanted to upgrade, and could afford to, I would. That   
   DS>applies to OS's, cable TV setups, etc. Also, when I purchased my copy of   
   DS>Windows 7 32-bit from Amazon, I likely got it much cheaper than what Microso   
   DS>originally sold it for...I think I paid around $70, with shipping.   
      
   I grabbed one of those OEM win 7 deals also
