I commented on this so often this year that this round I save my breath. Just adding that where these authors seem to imply to not update while still using W7 for all purposes, I always suggested to not update W7 anymore - and limiting work with it to what is unavoidable for you. Switch to a non-Microsoft OS.

This entry got a lot of replies in Woody's blog.

Windows is dead.

I did not like to read that Microsoft became Platinum Member of the Linux Foundation, and I want them to stay out - but the mere fact, talen for itself, that they choosed this path indicates clearly that they realised that their Windows battle is lost.

And like already was indicated by MS in the release days of W8, there will be no more new Windows version beyond W10. Means: no Windows 11 ever, or however one could have named the baby. Just an endless doctoring on W10.
