Tell me about it. I've got 3 Kaspersky licenses and a year left on an MS refurb license. The people I really feel for are the ones who upgraded to Windows 10 a year or so ago, and then got notified a few months ago that their hardware is no longer supported. It's like; "Here let me help you upgrade," and then; "We're sorry but now we don't wanna waste our time on your old hardware. Good luck with your stuff." I was working as a tech consultant for a very big global company when Windows 95 came out, and the whole company decided to switch from IBM mainframe and workstations, to PCs. They already had Windows 3.1 PCs in the marketing department but everything else was mainframe and workstations. The engineering department was a disaster for three years. I visited them in 2005 and they still had two PCs stashed in the engineering department running Windows 3.1 for viewing old technical advisories that never got converted beyond 3.1, literally millions of pages. Everything happens faster in the computing industry including obsolescence. Living without MS is a rewarding goal.
