the point is that if an upgrade doesn't significantly improve what the machine already does, why bother ?
I'm all for upgrades that make a real and tangible difference, but if the jobs the machine already does and will continue to do - aren't going to be effected - then upgrading is pointless.
Take the current bollocks surrounding microsoft stopping 'support' for windows 7 and urging people to 'upgrade' to winodws 10 before there computer explodes killing everyone within a 10 mile radious. (I'm paraphrasing there).
If you have a windows 7 machine - it will continue working just fine for - at least - the next 5 years (actually took over 10 years for windows xp to become genuinely obsolete after loss of 'support' - happened last year 2019).
If you buy or make a new machine - yeah stick 10 on it. But any existing machine with 7 is absolutely fine for the forseeable future and will function better with 7 than 10 anyway.Last edited by curious aardvark; 01-28-2020 at 06:30 AM.
