    I’m holding out until they force me to upgrade from 10. They’ve tried probably a half dozen times or so already to have me choose to upgrade but it’s been a minute.

        Not necessarily too old, but as long as it can boot in “legacy BIOS” mode, I think I’m safe 🤫

        Seconding Mint on this, It’s so easy to get used to it that it felt almost as familiar as Windows during my first week of using it.

        I’m sure lots of other OS work but not really worth the energy for me to switch over and learn a new OS just because I’m annoyed by them wanting to update me to a new version. Once I’m all set up and have learned it, it’ll probably be better than Windows but I’m just not willing to spend even a minute on it.

            Windows is just so ingrained in everything. Like this job I’m starting soon I’ll need it. At the very least it would be like a dual boot situation and like I said, not even willing to spend a minute let alone begin a whole project. Cheers

              I have dual boot on my work PC. I think the last time I booted into Windows was a year ago.
              I can boot the physical Windows partition in Virtualbox and QEMU. I do that maybe 3 times a month for a few hours.
