I will never want critical info such as bank info in the cloud.

I agree, I'd like to control where my data is saved, I do have a few
things in the cloud but nothing critical.
I just want to know where I put some of my stuff.

I like having my local account! if I were an IT manager and if I were
running a company I would not save stuff in the cloud I would want it
where I know I could get at it. backups in the cloud? maybe if they
were super secure. primary employee stuff would be local. and if I
ran a company an ms kept messing up my company would switch over to
ubuntu. Ubuntu is in the top 10 linux distributions on distrowatch.com .

Well hopefully from a tech standpoint I won't have to upgrade at
least 2 of the units here for at least another 5 or 6 years.
And to be honest unless one of them breaks I am not sure if I will
upgrade for some time to come.
I know for a fact that several people on the network are retiring in
the next 2 or so years and that will change slightly the use of at
least 1 of the computers.
I am not sure how much change that will mean as there will continue
to be a lot of business stuff on there but point is, the funds I
will have after the next 2 years or so will not really be that great.
I doubt for instance that next time I upgrade it will be because
windows is out of support, more likely it will be because my laptop
battery has exploded or something.
Thing is for the last 3-4 upgrades either I have needed it or the
systems in question are broken or have not been upgraded for some time.
With one acception every user is happy with their level of power.
In short ms will need to really convince people to switch, I know
for example that 7 is the last os that doesn't need a ms account to
login.
10 now its the only way to use the system and I am sure that later
oses will not have local account either.

Hello Ishan,
There will still be updates for Windows 7 available past January 13
2015. What you are confused about is on January 13 2015 Microsoft will
officially end mainstream technical support for Windows 7, but that
does not mean there won't be any updates available for the OS. All it
really means is that Microsoft will be switching Windows 7 over to an
extended support policy which will end in January 2020. As such
Microsoft will continue to offer critical updates such as security
patches and updated drivers, but will not be offering updated features
or applications for the OS. So in short Josh or anyone else who
chooses to stay with Windows 7 should be fine until 2020 when
Microsoft will pull the plug on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008.
As that is five years of extended support that should be plenty of
time for people to decide to either upgrade to Windows 8.1 or
alternatively to Windows 10. Both of which should have any bugs and
support issues worked out by that time. Who knows something better
might be available by then and people will want to upgrade to that.
In any case there isn't any need to worry or panic about Windows 7
support being dropped in January. Only mainstream general technical
support is ending. Security updates, driver updates, and any other
critical updates will still be provided until 2020.
Cheers!
