    Orrrr they could use one of the grown up versions that will get supported with free security fixes until 2032. Knowing MS you’d probably be able to pirate their “paid” security updates anyway. The downside is using windows ofc.

    The backup utilizes OneDrive, which provides each user 5GB of cloud storage for free.

    Stingy.

    With more than half of the Windows user base still running Windows 10, Microsoft is clearly starting to worry that, come October, over half a billion PCs will be left unsupported and vulnerable to newly discovered security threats.

    Oh yeah, they’re so worried for the common man. Makes you wanna trust them, doesn’t it?
