Before you install Microsoft Windows 10 you need to ask yourself one question. If they are giving the software away for free, how do they make back the money invested in development and sustainment?

Oh wait, not quite a winnah.
It's free to licensed users of 7 and above, for a one year period.
After that, if you got it, it's yours.
But if you missed the bus, after that year, you gotta buy it.

Isn't Apple OS X also “free” No. The buyer of a Macintosh computer gets OS X and future upgrades included with his or her purchase for the life of the support period. Such upgrades follow the hardware. The buyer pays for them at purchase.

The latest Mac OS is also “free”, you know. No, it was purchased when the hardware was purchased, it's included in the software license. It's not "Free.”

" I actually liked DOS."
So, by me still having my DOS-5 disks, does that mean that I'm a sick puppy? /sarcasm
I still do a lot of stuff, via "C" prompt, when bill gates try's to limit what I want.:-)
