I made the jump a few months ago, things have been pretty painless so far. Having a NAS has been a tremendous help regarding backing up my old work and transferring it to the newer systems. These days I only have 1 PC platform running windows 7 now, and that system is soon to be de-comissioned*. I have two other systems at home: One mobile platform I simply upgraded to windows 10, and the other platform was built from the ground up with windows 10 in mind.

Actually, that is reason enough for the talented hackers to leave it alone - the hacker mentality never fails to rise to a challenge.
* For some strange reason I chose to name my computers after saturn's moons. This year I'm saying farewell to my massive 58 Kg server, Dione. Presently I'm up to Hyperion as my compact [and very powerful] Windows 10 Mini ITX build.
