    is yours a legit version?

    Other questions nao, you come across as a bit of a ludite when it comes to new tech so i'm gonna ask.

    1. do you use win7?
    2. Do you like win7
    3. Does win7 do everything you want?
    4. does win10 have anything you need?
    5. Will you end up shouting at your pc after win10 then go back to win7 anyway?
    6. Let berley try win10 then get it is she likes it :P


    you can do the upgrade thing, just dont upgrade it til your sure!

    plus 1 to what alan said

    maybe you could duel boot
    ie win7 with win 10 installed on the same drive
    then that way you got an option to boot which ever windows you want
    but i think this might be too technicle for you

    TBH if it's anything like windows 8 I wont be trying it, when I had to get a new lappy last year it came with windows 8, kept it on for approx 2 weeks then went back to W7.
