Windows 10 is a free upgrade for 7, 8.1 users
"I'm very excited to announce that for the first year after Windows 10 is available we will be making available a free upgrade to Windows 10," Microsoft EVP of Operating Systems Terry Myerson said during a conference today.
For anyone gaming on Windows, this means one fewer roadblock to keeping that library current. Xbox will receive "core components" of Windows 10 in an update this year, and Microsoft is poised to deliver Xbox news during today's conference.

OhDiegoCosta Glad to see Microsoft following Apple with the free OS upgrade, about time!
That is one thing Apple does correctly. Microsoft should have been doing this at an earlier point in time.

Tet Windows 7 users will probably still hate Windows 10, they just need to stop making OSs that are NOT made for PCs.
Keep it on the Windows Phones/Xbone please. We don't like Tiles.
There's nothing wrong with Windows 10. The only reason as to why people hate Win8 is because of the missing start menu, not the fact that it has tiles.
Windows 10 is built as a unified OS, for all platforms; PC, Console, Phone, Tablet. It's not aimed specifically at one platform, but is design to work on all platforms. There's nothing really to hate about "Tiles". People just find it hard to take change.It's the only obvious fact.
