I still have a PC that I keep it with a Win7, apart from others with Linux (Mint and Debian). This reply is from that Win7 PC. Works, but is a pain to keep it alive and well. Especially with browsers that you cannot update them anymore. Many apps you have to keep them old and clunky, but if you do not not anything important are manageable. I keep it just for fun with this old Win7. I TOTALLY REFUSE TO USE ANY WIN10 OR WORSE 11... NEVER. Linux Mint is just fine for regular use and crap. People should move NOW at least to Linux Mint. MS Win is a total nightmare. And this is coming from an old IT Sys admin working almost 20 years in this domain of MS Win servers and desktops. Get rid of Windows NOW!

Indeed. Helped a young couple move to Mint maybe a year ago and they love it. The vast majority of people do not need Windows at all. Mint works better on old hardware than any version of Windows and its not spying on you or as vulnerable to viruses.
We nerds and advanced users over-estimate how much of the operating system most people even use. I think its actually easier for causal users to switch in many ways.

Yeah and Linux is so much easier than all that Microsoft crap.
