What Windows 7 users need to know about updating to Windows 10
http://mashable.com/2015/07/30/windo...de-windows-10/

Here's my take on that nice article:
1. The "Start Menu" is back in Windows 10
2. Windows 7 "Gadget" is gone in Windows 10
3. Windows 7 "Windows Media Center" is gone in Windows 10
4. Windows 10 Pro has "Update for Business"
5. Windows 10 Pro has "Domain Join Services"
6. Windows 10 Pro has "BitLocker Drive Encryption"
7. Windows 10 Pro has "Group Policy editor"
8. Windows 10 Pro has "Remote Access Services"
9. Windows 10 has "DirectX 12 graphics API"
10. Windows 10 has game streaming from Xbox One
11. Windows 10 has "Cortana", the voice assistant
12. You have only 1 month to decide if you want to revert

Is any of that useful for the average Windows 7 user?

Yes: it tells me that there's nothing there that I actually want.

If it said "Windows 10 has built-in support for Blu-Ray discs" I might
look at it again.

Try Media Player Classic.

Doesn't anyone even want to pay for something like PowerDVD that has
about everything one could want. Way better than Itunes, I think.
