    It was my last Windows too. I used it until shortly before the end of Extended Support, stubbornly refusing to upgrade.

    I had been running Dualboot with Ubuntu for a while, but something bricked my bootloader (I didn’t bother investigating just what nor trying to fix it) and I decided the time was as good as any to take the leap and go fully Linux.

    I’d love to say I never looked back, but every now and then I’m tinkering to get something to run and think of the days when the question “will it work?” was reserved for complex mod setups in Skyrim. The compatibility tools have gotten a lot better and I’ve gotten more experienced and confident with them and the system itself, but there are days where I miss the comfort.

    Still, the newer Windows versions never appealed enough to consider going getting, and they’re growing less and less appealing with each new update. I’m using Win10 at work and it has only cemented my conviction to not get it for myself.
