Over two years ago, MS started breaking Windows 7 with "security updates" that were really just preparing the OS for an upgrade. I was able to roll back the updates and even disabled future updates, but that poses security issues.
I let it upgrade to Windows 10 to see how that looked.
So Linux it is. Using Mint Cinnamon and don't care what happens in the MS world anymore.
PC Magazine used to have printed hexadecimal assembly code that you could type into Microsoft's debug program to create small utilities in the.com format.
tbannist may actually believe that everything he wrote is actually true. In the good old days, you know, when America was Great, people like him used to get jackets with long sleeves and rooms with padded walls.

My CPU is: Intel Core i3-2120 CPU @ 3.30Ghz
Updated my Linux Mint 18.3 Cinnamon 64 bit this afternoon and all is well after reboot.
Ran sysbench tests on CPU and File IO before and after and noticed no difference.
I went from a Samsung S4 to an LG G6 and it has a working FM radio as long as the headphones are plugged in.
LG isn't Apple by any stretch, but it's still pretty big.
I burned the last two releases to CD only to find they won't boot on real hardware so I could run them "live". Maybe I should wait for version 1 to try that again?

MS made sure Windows 3.1 wouldn't run on DR DOS.
Their so-called "security" updates caused so many problems, I jumped to Linux. W10? Fuggedaboudit.
Those generous Nigerian princes can now give me a share of their $$$. I'm gonna be rich!
Nope. Me neither.
I hope you are talking about legal immigration.
In its original incarnation, its memory footprint was about 35 megabytes and it was insanely fast compared to anything that came after.
They can easily make self driving cars. What they can't do is make safe self driving cars.
Flying cars should fix it. /snark
Is there anything Anonymous Cowards don't know?
I bought a external USB floppy drive and am able to boot the computer from it. Either I got lucky or it's pretty much standard.
Democrats are now running on a platform of increased illegal immigration and higher taxes.
It's almost like Intel is in the process of destroying their brand.
People have written sleep utilities in compiled languages for use in batch files.
I saw that too and wonder what's really going on there.
Are they saying that is allowable?
The only bulge in my pants the ladies seem to care about.
Nyet!

I bet you will.
