Windows 10 Installation Induced Boredom Day

I just finished up a minute before you.
Took 80 minutes but they generated a new key and I am in business.
I wonder how this will go after today.

Why the heck did they make the deadline on a Friday rather than giving us the weekend to do it?

You can still make it. Just grab a USB stick (I think 8GB is needed), use the Windows 10 download tool and it takes care of everything for you. Very easy.

No I mean I literally can't. They have stuff running that requires XP. It's insanity.

Can XP be virtualized on top of Windows 10?

Can I use smoke signals instead of the internet or a cell phone? Sure, but why?

Get Windows 10 for the every day tasks. Get ready for the future. Limit XP to XP-only tasks. What's the game plan with staying behind on XP? It's not indefinitely supportable. You are already heading down a path of disaster. Sure, it is a long path, but there is no more support, no security updates, things will only get more and more dangerous and precarious and when something goes wrong, it's going to go really, really wrong.

I've got 3 neurons firing boys. Please don't take anything I say seriously. Of course there is a reason to do that. I'd run it in virtualbox and call it a day. There is so much to fix here I don't even know where to begin.

Well Windows 10 would be a priority to fix today. Easy one to put at the top of the list. Are the XP machines originally purchased with Windows 7?
