I think they are offering free upgrades for a year for everyone, even bootlegged copies. This pretty much sums up the windows experience over the years lol

Well one thing that I really don't understand about computers in general.  My first computer was an Acer that I got in Walmart around 98 or 99.  It probably had 32 gig hard drive, 512 ram and that thing was great.  Never had any issues.  Now the average computer has 500gig hard drive, 4-12 gigs of ram and seems to run slower, and more or less do the same thing that my computer did 15 years ago.  WTF?  Where is all that extra power going??  Why are programs so bloated now???  My last laptop (it had other issues) got shelved because I ran out of space on the HD, and I couldn't open certain programs.

but the problem with that is I don't know what's necessary and what's not.

uh, maybe I won't upgrade

Windows 10 is amazing. Windows 10 is fantastic. Windows 10 is glorious. Windows 10 is faster, smoother and more user-friendly than any Windows operating system that has come before it. Windows 10 is everything Windows 8 should have been, addressing nearly all of the major problems users had with Microsoft’s previous-generation platform in one fell swoop.

But there’s something you should know: As you read this article from your newly upgraded PC, Windows 10 is also spying on nearly everything you do.
