That's an excellent point. Why pay a bundle just to get what you already have?

Windows 10 license seems to be free for the ones that update to it within the first year of release so I see little reason to complain about that
That seems pretty cool.

What does bug me in 8.1 are the changes made to a couple of parts, mainly Media Player. They took out the best parts of that program and when anybody complains they waste everybody's time explaining why it's better now. One advantage of 7 seems to be that MP 12 is integrated into Windows 8 and you can't replace it with an older version without breaking everything. I'm hoping 10 will resolve that.
