I'm stuck using certain software that doesn't run on Linux, so I'm stuck using 10 until the end of time I guess.

It's probably time to move my Win7 laptop to Linux though.

The only thing it ever connects to the Internet for is getting to Google fiber speed test with a hardwired connection to the modem. Not that there's anything important on it anyways.

always have in mind that an intruder only needs one unlocked door to enter your home. google ads are known to have been infested with malware several times...
