Security is only overhyped. Until it happens to you. Similarly, nobody is going to force anyone else to do what they think is right. But most importantly, you *do not* need a $1000 computer to run

If cost is a factor you might try and get government funding for a new computer. There are places that give computers away to those in need. However, when I took advantage of this, I got a

I will weigh in on this, not trying to argue, but I had a windows XPcomputer I bought in 2004. I used it until December 20, 2018 when it gaveup the ghost 14 1/2 years with absolutely NOproblems!

Indeed, and I was not trying to imply you wouldn't, nor that continuing to use Windows 7 is a good idea. I have, however, witnessed an awful lot of clinging to dead OSes, and some people are going to

Absolutely agree with this (and your point about using an SSD as the main drive, possibly partitioned into the Windows OS portion and keeping User Data on it on a partition of its own). I actually
