  19. Re:so, the key to amnesty... on Microsoft Offers Pirates Amnesty and Free Windows 10 Upgrades · · Score: 1

    Windows 7 is so far ahead of XP that it's not even funny. Lightyears. Any hardware that windows 7 DOESN'T RUN ON IT to the point the install refuses, is on the edge of physical death and true obsolescence. Any company stuck in that era isn't agile enough to be terribly competitive and will fail in time.
