I don't know what I will end up doing, but whatever it is, it won't be within probably a month or so, so I can think about it, and talk to some people. But it just seems silly to me to invest any money into this 7-year-old, 32-bit computer, rather than buying a new one with Windows 10 already on it. As you can tell, I keep them for a while, so it isn't as if I will be buying a new computer, to throw it out in a couple years for another new one. Plus, I am one of those who would want to know that I was getting legal copy of Windows 7 to put onto it, so that precludes some cheaper ways of upgrading it to windows 7.

I have a desktop here at my business which is 7 years old and it is offering me to upgrade to Windows 10 and running the little utility which tells you whether it’s compatible came up with nothing that wouldn’t work. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Arnold Schmidt Sent: Saturday, September 19, 2015 11:08 AM To: [email protected] Subject: An Unfortunate Development After Upgrading to IOS 9, having Nothing to Do With IOS 9 I only have had IOS 9 running for a few minutes, so I don't know if I have any of the bugs yet. I do know that they put a useable table index back into Apple Music, that is good. I used iTunes on my computer to upgrade. Really near the end of the upgrade, ITunes told me that Arnold's iPhone could not be used because I needed a newer version of iTunes. What a scare! What am I going to do, my phone is not on yet! I waited, and it did come on, and the rest of the setup process went easier than in the past. What iTunes meant is that this poor old Vista computer, running iTunes 12.1.2 is now just too old. It won't run anything later than iTunes 12.1.2, I guess my phone needs at least 12.2 to interface with my computer now. So, being that I really don't want one of these phones without access to a computer running iTunes, I guess I am going to have to hit up my 401K, or something, and get a Windows 10 computer. I was planning to do this anyway, maybe in the spring, after saving the money to spare the 401k, and Windows 10 went through an update or two, not this soon. I know I technically could upgrade this one to windows 7, then to 10, but that would be wasting money in my opinion, just put that money toward a new one. Whatever. My stuff is just too old now.
