Windows 10: Why upgrade?

Come July 29th, anyone wishing to upgrade to Windows 10 will have to pay
$119 to do so. Until then, registered users of Windows 7 or 8.1 can
download a free copy. Should they? Upgrading a machine running Windows
8.1 is a no-brainer. Windows 10 is what its predecessor should have
been. But that is not true for Windows 7; its robustness and
user-friendliness make it worth sticking with, writes our technology
