    ES> What version of Windows are you currently using and what   
    ES> version have you updated to?  .. what are their specs?   
      
   [1]   
      WinXP, Thinkpad T60/T2400/1.83GHz/3GB 250GB HDD   
      
   [2]   
      WinXP, Lenovo G530/T6500/2.5GB 160GB HDD   
      
   [3]   
      WinXP, IBM Thinkcenter MTM8143 tower/P4 530 3GHz/2.5GB 75GB HDD   
      
   This is poised to be an experimental Linux Mint pc someday, or I might send it   
   to the landfill because I don't like the sound of the fan running. The XP in   
   this particular pc seems to be accessing the HDD every second and the sound is   
   very noticeable. The live boots of Linux were not doing that.   
      
   [4]   
      Win7, HP Slim 100B tower/desktop 4GB (more details later if interested)   
      
   [5]   
      Win7, Dell (more details later if interested)   
      
   This had XP originally. Problems arose. Tried Lubuntu/64bit and then   
   Manjaro/64bit for a while. I was impresseed. But I had a problem getting   
   networking to work with other Win pcs. So, I settled with Win7. Nice pc, CPU   
   is 64bit supported, but mobo only recognizes 4GB max with Linux, and only 3GB   
   max with Windows.   
      
      
    ES> Do you have any quarrels with the software as of late?   
      
   WinXP and Win7 cooperating very nicely. Just running out of HHD space on all   
   of them.   
      
      
    ES> As for me currently I am running Windows 10 Professional   
    ES> 64bit. I am up to feature version 1909. And surprisingly my   
    ES> entire experience with Win 10 has been flawless..   
      
   Good to hear.   
      
      
    ES> ... I can't recollect the last time it   
    ES> completely crashed on me. It's been a few years!   
      
   Are you leaving it on 24/7? If so, then I am impressed.   
      
   Are you doing a full shutdown at the end of your day? If so, that probably   
   explains a smoother operation. A full reboot often cleans up things.   
      
      
    ES> CPU is a custom barebones build from 2011. AMD FX 6100 Black   
    ES> Edition / 6 cores @ 3.31 GHz 8 Gig DDR3 ram 240 Gig Kingston   
    ES> SSD (about slap full)   
      
   That's a very modern machine. My [4] above is the newest of the bunch. I have   
   the extra 4GB modules for it since about 6 months ago to maximize it to 8GB,   
   but no spare time to plop it in.
