Worked as beautifully as ever for light browsing and gaming. Then Chrome support stopped, including Steam. Can't upgrade any Electron app, either. Still holding out but soon I'll relegate it into a box running under linux. Well, it had a good 30+ year run.

Firefox is not updated for W7 too. Brave seems to be supported. And Chrome has annoying note that I need to update system.

Linux Mint is said to be good for usage.

But what I will miss is Outlook tuned to perfection. I don’t know how to transform 30+ GB pst file to something different. :)
