    The sad thing about being a Windows user is they’ve got you between a rock and a hard place. You either upgrade or lose support, and in a lot of cases you can’t upgrade without buying a new system.

    I know a lot of people resist learning Linux, but it really is the only way out of the cycle. You can start small at first, dip your toes in. Before long it will feel more natural and familiar than the next release from Redmond. On that day you will be free.

      It certainly is coming to an end, but Windows 7 had a good run for support and Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC (2021) has until 2027. But for sure people should get really comfortable with Linux soon.
