Except after some date in the not too distant
future, upgrade to Windows 10 will not be free but
cost $100 or so.
I've updated three PCs and two Macs (via BootCamp)
from Win 7 to Win 10 and I'm very pleased with the
new OS.
No need for the Classic Shell approach I needed on
my one Win 8.1
I work at a large corporation that generally keeps the technology reasonably
current and we are still standardized on Win 7 Enterprise. I have not run into
any apps that are supported on Win 10 and not supported on Win 7. The drive to
upgrade has significantly decreased. That is why the upgra

I have a 6-year old Dell tower for my business and personal use and a
3-year old Dell laptop for my ham radio use. Both of them run Win 7 Pro
64 bit.
I tried "upgrading" the laptop to Win 10. Too much effo

Hi Deni
Comme les autres Win 10 c'est bonne avec Classic Shell; tous mes programmes

Personally, I'm sticking with Win 7 for as long as I can.
I have a few computers:
1) Aged Toshiba laptop with Win XP that has a parallel port for running my N2PK
network analyze. No wi-fi in this one anymore.
2) Lenovo T400 upgraded to SSD running Win 7 Home 32 bit that is the shack

Deni,
I use Win 10 and prefer it. Win 10 is more stable and uses less
memory then Win 7.
You can install the FREE Classic Shell (see:
http://www.classicshell.net/ ) to have the same program start menu setup
as Win 7 on the Win 10 system. I don't use or like the Metro interface.

If you built your own desktop under Win 7, it should migrate right along
with the rest of your files.
I have had resolution issues with Win 10 and it was a bear to fix. As a

I'd go with Windows 10 but load the freeware classicshell.net Windows 7
option. No silly Tiles, Charms, etc. and you get the traditional W7
interface with the added benefits of W10 (better security, automatic
updates, automatic maintenance, etc.)
I had 2 older Vista laptops that were converted

Hi, I have an Elecraft K line station and up to now have been running all
my software on an aging Win 7 32 bit machine. No real problems but I'm in
the process of building an updated PC and have a dilemma. Do I go with Win
7 Pro 64 Bit or Win 10 for the OS?
