I've been wondering about updating myself. I bought Windows 7 instead of Windows 8. I did have a go with Windows 8 on my brother's new laptop and absolutely hated it. I would prefer to keep Windows 7 is 10 tries to shoehorn you into the Windows 8 method of using it. But reports seem to suggest that it's OK. At least there's a start menu.
It's not the appearance that matters to be as much as much where to find everything. I use KDE on Linux but never liked Gnome, which was a shame.
Another problem I have is dual booting with UEFI with Windows on the first hard disk and Linux on the second. Reinstalling Linux used to be a breeze but last time I ended up wiping over the hard disk. I wouldn't want the upgrade to Windows 10 to mess that up!
I'm going to have to make a lot of backups before I proceed.
