I loved Windows 7 and did not want to change, but I figured it was for the best.

I just wanted to remind DrSmith if he ever does decide to upgrade, of the problem I had when I upgraded which I mentioned earlier. Even though I had read people who got the upgrade on a stick had problems, I chose to get a stick. It seemed to install fine, but it wouldn't recognize any of my usb drives. My computer had only one ps2 port, so I could only use a mouse or a keyboard. There are ways around that, but it's a pain in the neck.

So I remembered those reviews, downloaded 10 from Microsoft, installed it and used the key I got with the usb stick and voila! I was back in business.
