Two older versions of Windows are approaching their mandatory retirement date. If you want a new PC running Windows 7 or Windows 8.1, you'll have fewer options beginning on Nov. 1. Link

Note that this is only applies to OEM PC/laptop builders (Dell and the likes). Windows 7 will continue to be supported into early 2020, and you'll still be able to buy the operating system itself from retailers (while stocks last) and register it with MS as normal.

Still rocking 7. Probably will till 2020 when support is dropped. Maybe by then the kinks will get worked out of 10.
