When Microsoft first announced that Windows 10 was going to be free for people who are currently using either Windows 7 or 8.1, lots of folks did the happy dance.
After all, for the first time ever, a major new Windows upgrade was being released to the masses for free.
I still think the free Windows 10 upgrade offer is awesome, but I also believe taking advantage of it should be optional. But as it turns out, Microsoft apparently doesn’t agree with me. [Read more…]
