Windows 10 Free Upgrade Deadline Approching

My dear friends, I am posting this to remind you that there less than 3 months before Windows 10 FREE upgrade is free no more. After 27 July, Microsoft will make Windows 10 now costs an entire 130 USA dollars. Yes 130 American dollars, when you could have gotten it completely for FREE. Please read this whole post carefully, I don't want anyone to miss this wonderful opportunity. Deadline is approching very fast and will be over before you know it. I urge all of you to upgrade to Windows 10 as soon as possible. You don't actually have to use Windows 10 after you upgrade. You can upgrade to Windows 10 and then immediately downgrade to 7 or 8 if you want (at your own peril if I may add). This method, you now get a saved Windows 10 license for FREE while still using whatever os you were comfortable with before. Hurry up and get your free upgrade to Windows 10 before you end up spending $130 for it in July. You don't even have to use it for fuck's sake, just upgrade and go back if you are still dumb enough to be scared of the nonexistent bogeyman spying.

I understand some businesses wanting to keep Windows 7 because there are quite a few instances where you must support legacy software, but for average computer users? Windows 10 is like 95% the same under the hood as 7 or 8, uses the same drivers, has much faster performance, is more optimized and modern, and has considerably better improvements. I know I'll get replies condemning me a shill for Microsoft but you guys ought just be realistic here. 90% of computer users have no business running insecure, inferior, and outdated operating systems. The internet is full of criminals and hackers looking to exploit and cause havoc for profit. If you're not upgrading as a responsible internet citizen, you're part of the problem.
>>
>>54648863
I agree with you, people should just get it over with. Windows 10 is a lot better than Windows 7. It won't be fun browsing the internet in 2017 and beyond with a 10 year old unsupported operating system. Upgrading is a no-brainer at this point.

Been using Windows 10 for 6 months so far, and I actually like it. I'm honestly pretty pissed for listening to all the 4chan trolls here telling me that it sucked and that the only people praising it are "shills". And I would be extremely furious if I missed the free upgrade because of idiots who post their lies. NOBODY should let all this bullshit FUD prevent them from getting a free upgrade to Microsoft's best work yet.

New world order under increased surveillance, tighter walls limit individuality under the aegis of an overseeing eye defining justice for community rather than personal moral responsibility.

Pushing windows 7 murphy78 may update even for business use

Proxy wars, false flags... The pharma industry propagates disease for profit, the security industry creates viruses to cure them, follow the money; giving a sense of pure evil to some obscure anarchist malevolent entities is generalizing but the fact of the matter is we've never lived in times of wealth and general peace, the increasing gap of inequity in prosperity and the sheer population growth lead to protection of interests that aren't always aligned and used as a blanket statement. One needs to think and not defer his thought to be secure to an overlord, increasing alienation under the aegis of a platform just because its needed to be used

By all means, live dangerously

even though this feels like a troll thread, you are right that MOST users should upgrade. There are some instances (mostly with severely outdated software or hardware) where someone shouldn't upgrade.

>>54649025
I've installed a pirated copy of 7 and activated with daz loader and upgraded to ten on at least three machines. None of them had any activation problems and now have activated copies of 10 pro. It's not difficult.

I have to ask:

Since this system is no longer going to be free, does that mean that once that happens, MS is not going to try to forcefully upgrade systems anymore?

I mean, force this update down everyone's throats, then expect people to pay for it? I don't think that would fly.

How does it feel like to be unironically a moron? Is it gaymen that causes the rationalization or are you just a shill? Windows 10 is actually a crime against humanity because of the virtual monopoly Microsoft has on the market. It is nothing short of absurd that people are now using spyware as their operating system. If you had put this scenario to someone in the 90s they would have said, "That is never going to happen, are you crazy?" Yet here we are complete with absolute morons like yourself defending this insane mass-scale violation of human rights. Shame on you.

Same here. A friend was going to sell me his better motherboard but he's pretty dumb and doesn't really get how to grab windows 10 for free. I explained to him the whole process and instead he went and tried to fucking activate it himself with MS toolkit because that's what works on 8.1.

I'm thinking of just buying myself a new one instead but this is going to happen either way.

After abut 4 hours I managed to put Windows 10 on my brothers tablet. It was on Win8.0 before and was useless. The wifi kept cutting out, it would freeze all the time, generally a pain to use.
Win10 seems to have remedied most of the issues.

The whole experience of upgrading put me off 10. I've never needed to update or change anything in my OS for the past 4 years.
Everything is running as smoothly as ever and I don't want to be pressured into making unnecessary changes.
>>
>>54651209
Thanks for the afternoon keks.

I'm quite enjoying windows 8.1, I haven't been using it for long because I stuck with 7 for ages after listening to people say 8.1 sucked. The only thing wrong with it is the lack of a start menu, but the new start screen is pretty good if you embrace it.

So I don't see a reason to move to win10 any time soon.
