I’ve had windows 10 on old Seagate hard drive that I bought in 2007. I really can’t complain about that one. it still works fine. Windows 10 is just anything but efficient with drive use. I hated to buy an SSD for windows which I only boot into once a month if that but I got tired of the click, wait, wait, wait, window shows up with spinning cursor, wait, wait, wait.

After the last experience I had of wasting hours to use a specific program that required windows but required I do certain painfully slow update that took hours of my time I have started to boot into the steaming pile of turds known as windows 10 more than every few months when I need it just to run windows update. I could upgrade to an SSD for windows but I don’t use it enough to justify the cost of another windows tax.

Microsoft is releasing a public beta of windows 7. Once I get my older hard drive installed in this computer I think I may give it a try to see what it’s like. Even though I rarely use windows at this point I need it for a few things like mapping software for our GPSrs and some other little thinks like that. Vista is on Molly’s laptop and I just don’t like that.
