    instead of running around like chicken little screaming "the sky is falling down" just veg out relax and wait and see what happens. you could be dead tomorrow, we all could be dead tomorrow, the world might blow up. why waste that time panicking, have a :rasta: and relax:om:

    Windows 7 gonna be dead. And MS tells me to upgrade to Windows 10.

    I dont mind the flat metro style and im used to the start menu so no themes or shells for me, the only thing i do insist on is the classic task manager(from winaero). tweaked to the tits 8.1 is great :)

    What about Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 (For Embedded Systems) this page says that it has WU support till 2024 I have tried to find an ISO of any of the 4 Embedded versions of Windows 7 that are listed at the bottom of this page, but to no avail. Can anyone else here help or expand on knowledge of the Windows 7 Embedded versions listed at the bottom of this page "msembedded biz en embedded-software windows-7" I had to butcher the URL b/c guess I'm too new to post links, just put the slashes back in where I put the big gaps & add back the triple W

    The emoji might solve the Problem--- where I live you get between 10 and 20 years in jail for that. No need for updates there
    (It is one of those grand old civilisations, that knows what is good for you)

    f you think 7 Embedded Pro & Ultimate doesn't exist, here are the SKU numbers for them 44C-00039 and 42C-00039 Just search for them & you'll see that there are a ton of MS partners selling them. And like I said before, all of the partner/resellers say that they have WU support till 2024.

    So it's just normal Windows 7 with a key licensed for Embedded usage

    i.e. EOS is January 2020, and it support ESU until 2023
