They are doing this because they do not want to pay development costs on Windows 7. But it sure seems like they are pushing 10 so hard its like they were told to do so.. Maybe by the US gov? I heard that windows 10 has much spying abilities compared to 7. Who cares anyhow, once I can play my games on Linux then I will never use a microsoft OS again.. other than at work....
Windows compatible OS is being worked on..
