I held off on Windows 10 for as long as I could until my job required it. Now this nonsense. I hope this isn't the start of them joining on the web DRM bandwagon.

"I held off on Windows 10 for as long as I could until my job required it."
Good, users like you are the reason ransomware happens. Fucking update your shit. Windows 7 isn't secure anymore.
I don't even understand the hate. It works well, stable, fast and pretty decent on RAM. Even early on I haven't had any major issues.
Yeah, I'm generally an early adopter of software, even installed XP media center edition and Win 8 as soon as they were available through the volume licensing center. I've never understood the hate around 10 or 11 on the whole. Yes they have a few frustrating aspects, but overall, they're significant improvements. I occasionally use a win 10 device at work, and it feels clunkier than 11 now. 7 was great, but it isn't worth compromising an entire network for.
