Yeah it comes in with the latest Windows Update, the good news for some is that if you use a cracked version of Windows 7 or 8 then you can still upgrade for free.

Windows 10 is rolled out on July 29th.

Cracked versions of 7/8 can upgrade to W10, but they will still be cracked versions of windows.

So:

1. Is it worth updating from 7?
2. Is it worth updating from 8?

Yes. Because its no longer supported and doesn't have patches put out to stop people who have found ways to exploit it.

All the geeks I know say to go for it. Good price (free), quicker boot up and shut down, more secure and longer support.

Probably the thing I miss most since I got a laptop with Windows 8. Glad to see they have the sense to go back.
