Bobby: Good point. It seems the overall method is to introduce minor tweaks, increase the complexity. The user if forced to purchase either new software, or new hardware to cope with the increased demands of the new software. I have both Windows 10 and 7 laptops, and am going to hang on to the older one as long as I can. Same for my phone .. I keep refusing system updates (have never been hacked, perhaps because the system is old and the hackers moved to the current versions!).
