Windows 10 debuted a little over 8 months ago, leaving less than 4 months for
you to upgrade your Windows 7 or 8 system to Windows 10 free of charge. The
exact cutoff date is July 29, 2016. But even if you have decided to stick with
one of the older Windows versions, you may soon wake up in the morning to find
Windows 10 has taken its place. Here's what you need to know...


No surprise, here.

How do you *know* what OS a machine is running?

Based on an examination of the desktop? (if I put a Windows95 desktop on your
machine, would that convince you that it was running W95?)

Based on what "My Computer | Properties" claims? (so, if I LIE and tell you
it's 7even, will you believe me?)

Most users are clueless as to what's happening under the hood. And, damn
near powerless to do anything about it!

That's why god created lemmings...
