Still got my late wife's Dell PC i5 laptop which came with W7. I remember she accepted the offer of a free W10 upgrade which just absolutely stuffed it. It was a nice laptop with W7. I ended up taking it to the local PC support guy who reverted it back to W7 and made sure it would no longer upgrade to W10. I suppose W7 is no longer supported, I haven't fired it up for a long time now.

W10 is excessively intrusive and I will never use it.  Despise the interface plus it doesn't support my email program.  I HATE it.  Yep Cookie, support for 7 finished a few months back but mine still hums along.  There's a few freeware programs out there (Never 10 being one) that deny any access to a W10 install.

EDIT - I don't believe 10 is any longer offered as a FOC upgrade

And if we'd built a dam 15 / 20 years back?   Look at the charges on your water bill and what % component is for just the H2O.  I don't mind new technology at all (save for Windows 10 insofar as PCs go) but how dumb can you be to embrace the "next big thing" and abandon the old and proven.

Didn't the Queen do the same thing after the 1992 Windsor Castle fire and her annus horribilis?  No-one objected to that and IMHO, same applies to Notre Dame.

But the likes of LOB and Cunningham cost real picks,  done F all.   MacG,  cost heaps picks and $$$ wise.   March bank another.
 Keogh has a point people.   SoS didn't get every pick right, but who does?

He did IMO make some good points, no doubt, but equally you should get your facts right.

Count our blessings we didn't get Shiel, Coniglio and Papley.
