Easy to upgrade but costs like 99 bucks. Cheaper to get it with if possible.

Does it matter if I get windows 10 Home or Pro? Here at my place, there is no network, I am standalone. I occasionally bring my laptop to a client's, and want to be able to plug it in and log into their network. I believe I had windows 8 Pro Karen -----Original Message----- From: Bruce Chitiea <rby...@safesectors.com<mailto:rby...@safesectors.com>> To: rbase-l <rbase-l@googlegroups.com<mailto:rbase-l@googlegroups.com>> Sent: Thu, Sep 22, 2016 12:12 pm Subject: Re[4]: [RBASE-L] - OT - new laptop Warranty stories fall into four categories: 1.

I see alot of windows 8 Toshibas on EBay and they are "new - open box". I don't want to go thru all this software trouble just to get a "used" laptop, so are these usually okay to purchase?

My laptop (my only computer) just died, rats. It was a 2012 Toshiba Satellite with windows 8. Boy I am scared to get windows 10. I always bought at Best Buy, but they no longer carry Toshiba, and until now Toshibas have been so reliable for me. They do carry Dell, Lenova, Acer. So my question is, knowing that RBase is my primary concern, am I okay buying windows 10? And comment on brands?
