"No sir, it's an obsolete OS that went out mainstream support a year ago."

No sir, it's not. As the article says, they all sat in a room and decided not to write drivers for an OS which will go end-of-life in 2020 and is still being sold by OEMs.

If it works, good for you. If you close the lid and it doesn't sleep or it doesn't wake up, tough shit, they can't be bothered to write drivers. Anyway, GWX will be along in a minute to update now or update tonight.
