You pretty much hit it on the head, Joe.  I agree completely and will
continue running Windows 7 in the shack here.....why change what works?

There is no free lunch.

My advice is to very carefully read and add salt to the systems requirements
for 10 and compare those to your system.

No direct experience with hamware on 10, however, I have had several family
systems come to me that were a great deal less usable with 10 than they were
with 7.

Personally, I feel it should be avoided given the way that Microsoft has
botched the rollout.  The aren't worthy of much trust in my opinion.
