I occasionally ask for one good reason to go to 10 and nobody has

Name one good reason for staying with W-7 which is obsolete!

It's not Win 8 or Win 10.

Just like DOS, Internet explorer, Lotus, dBase, and other software that
has come and gone in the last 40 years

Internet Explorer "come and gone". I like that.

Just because it's now called Edge doesn't mean it's gone. Edge is still here and it still sux. Currently it tells me I have no internet connection, yet every other browser works. WTF? And as per usual with modern fluffy programs that act like a ****ing Apple Mac, all I get is a silly cartoon with a confused looking alien saying no internet. What about some ****ing technical information so I can fix the problem?!?



It is *not* now called Edge. Internet Explorer and Edge are two
different browsers, and *both* of them come with Windows 10.

I'm not a fan of Internet Explorer, but as far as I'm concerned, it's
much better than Edge, which to me is about the worst browser
available.

Agreed & BTW I have had no problem with W10 and I am reeely old. :-)

If there is an age difference between those that like Windows 10 and
those that like the old OS, It must be the younger ones who refuse to
upgrade.

I am 3/4 of a century old and am currently running W10 1809 on both of
my computers. I started out on a Texas Instrument TI-99-4a and the
Original IBM that had to 5.5 inch floppies for storage. We were
impressed when IBM released the AT with it graphics

Of the old people I know, 1/4 like Windows 10 and say "why not have the latest", 1/4 like older versions for no reason other than they're quite odd, 1/4 don't care which they use, and 1/4 don't have a computer and would never touch one with a bargepole. One of the latter was quite surprised when I printed off an instruction manual for her washing machine and didn't have to pay for it. She couldn't understand how Hotpoint could provide the manual for free. In the end I said it cost me 10p in paper.
