I'm getting nudged towards needing to replace my 6+ year old Toshiba laptop. The thought of having to buy a Windows 10 replacement isn't going to happen. I'd reboot and install Windows 7 right away. BUT the programs I use are for 32 bit and even if I did install Windows 7, it would be a 64 bit based system. And @jonathco - what are the program options for Linux? Will Windows set up programs run on Linux? And isn't it pretty much a fact that no matter HOW one sets up a your computer, the online connections/camera/microphone is capable of being remotely switched ON anyway?!? (big bro N S A)
My personal motto - The Home, a peace worth fighting for.

It still pushes you to download and install Windows 10. My 10 yo son got a Thinkpad last christmas (windows 7) and it recently upgraded to 10. I'm sure my son was behind it, because he's 10 and doesn't know any better. But it wouldn't have happened if he wasn't getting prompts.
