Wow... they have finally completely diminished themselves to employing pure malware tactics...

If it weren't for Win10 interface (which, for me, makes it harder to use, not just ugly) I might run Win10 LTSB but since we're staring at 2D screens I feel we don't need any more flatness than we already have. Meaning that would be one way to get rid of Win10 notifications I guess for PC gamers it's a non-issue because they need DirectX 12 so they'll go with Win10 anyway. Now with those ultra-fast Samsung M.2 SSD's it's another sign Win7 is becoming harder to use because you have to jump through hoops to get it detected on a Win7 system. So the hardware requirements are going to push Win7 out further, which happened with XP also. So Win7's got 4 more years (or so) of official support, but no more feature updates. Wonder if there is any really desirable hardware to come out during this time that would push Win7 users toward Win10.
