This year, Halloween will be scarier than usual for PC fans. Friday, October 31 is the final day that Microsoft will sell Windows 7 licenses to PC makers (OEMs in industry parlance), per Microsoft's lifecycle fact sheet.

After Friday it's all about Windows 8.1.

Why this matters: With its heavy emphasis on the Start screen, touch interaction, and the new Modern UI, many longtime desktop users—not to mention IT departments—were reluctant to move to Windows 8.1. Until now, the escape route for anyone in need of a new PC without Windows 8 was Windows 7. But that easy out will soon disappear. It's no coincidence Microsoft unveiled the much more desktop-friendly Windows 10 mere weeks before the death of Windows 7.

Easy solution: Don't be a boomer faggot and switch to OSX or Ubuntu.
