Is windows 10 worth it from windows 7? I kind of want to try it but too lazy to delete/reinstall new drivers

You can just upgrade straight from Windows 7 if you want...the upgrade will take care of the drivers.

I really enjoy Windows 10 to be honest. I like the look and feel more than Windows 7.

My only real issue was the start menu. It's more like Windows 7 than Windows 8 was, but it wasn't great. Ended up downloading Start10 by Stardock and I love it.

Maybe if someone posted a pic of Win 10 running classic shell, it would make the decision to go with Win 10 or not, a whole lot easier for some folks.

/e OR, post this link to this article.

Start10 is just like classic shell, except just a little bit better in my opinion.

Screenshot of home PC with Start10 "Modern" style menu, large icons, etc.:

Maybe I'm weird, but I like the Win 7 Start menu (set on Classic View), better than Win .1 or Win 10, even with Start10 or Classic Shell installed.
