Microsoft's dishonest and manipulative tricks to force Windows 10 upgrades are terrible for regular users or people who just aren't ready to make the jump.

I have a non-techie friend who works in a veterinary clinic who recently texted me that the computers in her office had gone down after being forcibly upgraded to Windows 10. No computers meant having a hell of a time looking up records for the dogs and what medicine they were supposed to get.

Not only is this forced upgrade business unethical, it's potentially dangerous. Some Windows systems haven't been upgraded because they're too important to tinker with.
