So, you're driving a Lada about, and I give you a free Ferrari and take your Lada away. Would you complain? And look at it from their point of view. Why should they expend more effort and expense looking after more than one OS just for the luddites? The main reason is they said they would support 7 and 8.1 to a particular years which are a few years out still. -- Caver1 |

They are finicky, fragile machines requiring expensive and frequent servicing by specialists. Frankly, if you gave me a free Ferrari I would give it back. (We don't have Ladas in the U.S. Closest equivalent might be a Rambler. I would rather have a practical, utilitarian Rambler than a high-strung toy like a Ferrari any day.) And look at it from their point of view. Why should they expend more effort and expense looking after more than one OS just for the luddites? I really don't care about their point of view. Mine is that I maintain business systems which you don't just cavalierly toss operating system upgrades at. I am dealing with cases in which business owners have specifically been told that specialized software they depend on will not work properly on Windows 10 - and now we have to deal with Microsoft spamming domain-connected PCs with upgrade offers. The upgrade being offered is not a problem. What I and others do mind is Microsoft repeatedly and forcibly shoving it down peoples' throats who don't want it and continually escalating the process. Once it is refused on a PC Microsoft should just shut the hell up and stop pushing it. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Roger Blake (Posts from Google Groups killfiled due to excess spam.)

I think Microsoft is giving it away free for two reasons, and both are money. One is money from the users, because Windows will become a service that you have to pay for just like your phone bill, and the other is money from the government for the information it collects about its customers. Windows 10 convinced me to stop using any Microsoft products, and I have removed Windows from all my computers. I quit Windows years ago. -- Caver1 |

We don't know yet what the end game is with this. I strongly suspect that Microsoft would down the road like to get regular fees from Windows users, as they do with Office 365, if they thought they could get away with it. As you say though I don't believe it will be any time soon. The increasingly aggressive way they are pushing this upgrade is pretty disturbing though. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Roger Blake (Posts from Google Groups killfiled due to excess spam.)

This regular troll is too clueless to know that software claiming to be "free" is in fact not free if it is a waste of time, especially when the beta version is being forced on users. I feel SO SORRY for those who can't figure out how to stop the WGX nagging. Oh, wait.. NO, I really DON'T, at all!! |

If Microsoft reduces maintenance costs by turning Windows into one
continuously updated operating system, that means it will be a subscription service. Or Microsoft will stop charging for Windows.

You can now stop posting here because you are unlikely to have anything meaningful to suggest. This newsgroup is for people using Windows products and in particular people using Windows 10. Any stop your stupidity to cross-post on every newsgroup you can find on this planet. For those of you who are still in doubt, the subject matter of this thread is false and misleading. I am using Windows 7 to post this message and I am not getting any pop-ups or nags to upgrade my machine. Either I know how to use Windows efficiently or that you guys are completely stupid and now crying like small babies. Grow up and learn to look after yourselves. -- /*This post contains rich text (HTML). if you don't like it then you can kill-filter the poster without crying about it like a small baby so that you don't see this poster's posts ever again.*/ /*This message is best read in Mozilla Thunderbird as it uses 21st century technology.*/ |
