Remember, there are two sides in a 'take it or leave it' argument.  Companies 
making that demand need to be careful their customers don't choose the later.

Subject: RE: [MDT-OSD] Forced to move to Windows 10

See: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/lifecycle

Note that Windows 7 SP 1 *ended* mainstream support over a year ago, 
technically that means no changes to product design or features, I'm pleased to 
see Microsoft making an exception in this case for Skylake on Windows 7 SP1.

Subject: [MDT-OSD] Forced to move to Windows 10

According to this article it looks like here soon any new hardware purchased is 
going to be forced to Windows 10, or be consigned to buying vintage hardware. 
Good luck keeping those executives from wanting the latest and greatest!
