Everybody on Lemmy thinking Windows 10 users have to choose among buying a new PC, switching to Linux, or waiting for Microsoft to blink, but six bucks and my right nut says the overwhelming majority aren't going to do squat when their machine stops updating.

If anything, a lot of people will take it as a blessing, Microsoft is very insistent on their updating process
