    Pretty sure I'll still be using 7 for the rest of this decade lol
    I have dual boot for 10 but still use 7 99% of the time.
     
    Hope 11 goes into a more positive spin

    Every year I hear the same nonsense.
     
    I see Windows 7 has become the new Windows XP. It's hilarious how long some people have been using Windows and continue to repeat the cycle of stomping their feet when there are upgrades and then demanding features from newer products get inserted into their 5+ year old software just because.
     
     


    Not my fault if you're offended.

    Well I have changed over two of my big end servers over to Ubuntu from Server 2003 Enterprise and XP 2 Desktops as well.
    Now I am going over the Office Apps to make sure I have some of the same tools on Ubuntu.
    So far it is looking good. One Tool I really need on Ubuntu is Visio but have not yet found one.
    One of my Ubuntu Server I have changed or to Server 2012R2 and so far I think I will move back to Ubuntu.
    But this is now what I do with my Time, I can say for Sure is I Really Hate Windows 10.
