Usually not but why not just publish them all on here and refer back to them when you need to log into something.

Still on 7, and get the support for that for a while yet. What will 10 give me that is over and above what 7 does?
7 has been straightforward and easy to use, why should I upgrade?

Windows 10 is bloody fantastic. Its by far and away the best Windows ever made. Its exactly the same to use as 7 as far as using it goes, so you wont have any bother that way, but its so much better optimised means its snappier in everything it does.

mmmm....... for some reason older systems tend to slow down like as though someone's doing it deliberately.
You usually need a new computer too.

Not Windows 10, the whole point of it is to have every computer in the world running it, there probably wont be another version of windows after 10, just updates, this is the entire point of it, it an always online, one size fits all solution.
Also, microsoft dont make pcs, theyre not apple.

Online all the time?
Not for me mate. A bit sinister that. I can choose when I go online easily enough without that.
And they clearly have some type of agreement with OEMs as has been apparent for decades.
Besides 7 works well enough for me and what I use it for.

What would you use a computer for without being online? Theres no reason.

MS Office seemed to have done well in the pre internet era.

So did lotus 123.
But you need the cloud to save office docs so you can use them on your phone. having them static in one place is pointless.

Exactly. PCs were business machines back them, now they are toys, like phones
