With end of support coming in early 2020 for Windows 7, is Windows 8.1 the next OS for holdouts?

yes pretty comfy
about 800-900mb that is with heavy antivirus and dell audio driver like avast in my case.
Very fast the only downside that is python idle shell render support is shit kind of laggy when the shell is on.

Either install Windows 10 or switch to a Linux distro that covers your needs. There is no reason to use old Win OS over the indefinitely updating Win10. Maybe try out Kubuntu/Xubuntu if you want something other than Windows 10.

Windows 7 will be supported until 2025 IIRC but you should switch to Windows 10 right now if Windows is what you want.

Proof bro?

8.1 is pretty decent but I don't think it will be like that. Most people still hate it enough they consider 10 to be better. Even though 8.1 doesn't replace useful stuff or hide it away the way 10 does. Or even though it's generally more stable and allows you to choose the updates you need. People want DX12 I'm sure.

Hackintosh still works fine until they completely ditch intel support

People always talk shit about 8 and 8.1, but they worked fine when I used them. I recently installed 8.1 on a craptop because I had to check some stuff, and it installed soooo much faster than win10, makes you think just how much garbage MS added later.

no. Windows 7 holdouts don't care about security updates. The normie retards probably haven't patched in like 5 years anyway.

>not disabling windows update

Why would you go through all the trouble of getting macOS to run on a non-Mac? What do you have against Apple hardware?

When they kick me off XP I'll switch to server 2000.

Not him, but quite a bit. Namely that their most recent desktop uses a fucking 28nm GCN AMD card from 2013, that is only as powerful as a 7870, an ivybridge CPU is the leat modular computer ever built, but still costs $3500 fucking dollars!?

>he thinks win7 will automagically become filled with viruses the moment support ends
win7 will be the only OS for holdouts, forever

Because "all the trouble" is not as much trouble, and Apple hardware, except for their trackpads is generally not worth the money that it costs, simple as that. If I'm going to spend extra for anything, it has to be sturdy, not break because of poor design that affects every single unit of a specific model because someone didn't get paid enough, and hardware that rivals whatever I can grab somewhere else. I'm not about to dump every dollar on a screen that is gonna end up stop working soon.

8.1 is underrated

Windows is only for games

10 is better for games than 8.1

Ameliorated

Please refrain from spamming an obvious botnet that "aims to replace another botnet"

Jokes on you, I'm using windows 10 right now.

Please provide proof to substantiate your statement, or promptly leave.

You leave, shill. Go do every step of that guide you put up there for people who are smart enough not to trust a random fucking ISO and see where it gets you.

So, no proof or argument. You sure told me.
>I'm the shill

stay mad micropoojeet.

>Jokes on you, I'm getting spied on by willingly running a botnet right now.
Ok? Good for you?

>source: my ass

This, go Windows 10 or loonix.

LTSC is less shit than any other Windows (except 2000)
