    Now that W10 is out, are you a W7 / W8 refusenik?

    Thanks, when W7 becomes in effect obsolete, I will upgrade to W8, when that is gone I will upgrade to an Android tablet and play candy crush all day in retirement *Big Grin activation of w10 from w8.1 :D

    You can probably install over if you got all your data backed up. Then do upgrade option. Also a good thing to do would probably make a image of the OS for backup.
