I agree with Brian, Windows 7 is a thing of the past
and you really should make the jump to Windows 10 whenever it is that you
get a new computer. Besides the fact that Windows 7 will have no more
support in less than a year, Windows 10 at least by now is so superior to
Windows 7 in almost any way, crashes which I had on a very regular bases
with Windows 7 are probably reduced by 95% in Windows 10, it’s Stabil and
fast and as Brian also said, all screenreader support and development is for
Windows 10. You may like things others don’t have, but really, a floppy
drive, I mean why on earth would you want a floppy drive? If you have old
floppies put what’s on them on a USB stick or an external drive or a DVD,
but I’m really curious what the point of one
is?
Also, you would be much better off with a 500 Gb or
so SSD as your main system drive, then add a good quality hard drive with a
larger capacity if you need lots of storage, the system performance will be
double or better overall and if you want a fast system you really do need an
SSD or your hard drive becomes the proverbial bottle neck in your nice new
machine.

7 is what I use, so even if support ends, I'll still be happy with what I
have.

The end of support for Windows 7 is also now only 8
months away, so it makes no sense, if one is going to continue into the
future under the Windows ecosystem, to use Windows 7.
The folks that
develop JAWS and other screen readers aren't going to "instantly" drop
support for Windows 7, but it will eventually be dropped, and probably much
faster than support for XP and Vista were dropped during the Windows
7/8/early-10 era given the changes in the underlying architecture of
Windows.

psychology of adultery has been falsified by conventional morals,
which assume, in monogamous countries, that attraction to one person
cannot co-exist with a serious affection for another. Everybody
knows that this is untrue. . .
