I heard Windows 10 will still be supported until 2025.  So there shouldn't be an
y problems with that, and by then, many people might want a new PC anyway.

I didn't really feel that way when I was a kid..  But maybe it's because when I 
was a kid, Windows 3.0 and 3.1 were the new things, and when Widnows 95 came out
, that was a very significant upgrade.  When Windows 95 came out, many people we
re excited about it, and people even lined up outside of stores to buy it.

My computer wasn't quite powerful enough to run Windows 95 very well at the time
, but after a while I bought a new computer.

I thought it was interesting to see the new advancements when new versions of Wi
ndows came out.  I don't think they're forcing us to upgrade though.  We can sti
ck with an older version if we want (though, software companies will eventually 
stop supporting the older versions).
