I use Windows 7 myself. I hated Windows 10, the telemetry, ads, candy crush, random reboots, updates that erase settings and so on are just crazy, and then seemly it often goes out of it's way to break important software.

Yup, definitely.

I still use Windows 7 as well.

Probably the last good version of Windows. I have fond memories of Windows 2000. Everything after it, not so much.
The last good version of Windows? The last good version of Windows was CP/M.
I don't trust those new-fangled operating systems.

Until recently, we had a CNC lathe at work powered by a VAXstation 3100 running (if memory serves) VAX/VMS 5.3... (Released in the late eighties)

If you have a VT420 can I buy it? DM me.
