"I put my workplace on 8.1. Every machine. There were a few 7's still lying around but we got rid of them as soon as I could get to them. We network-boot to re-image machines, and it takes 20 minutes."
^ That's what I'm going to be advising the people I help out to do - go to Win 8.1 (with Start8) rather than risk Win 10 on an existing machine (Win 10 seems to be better when it comes pre-installed on new equipment). For those who are more open minded, I'm also going to suggest considering a move over to Linux now that office suites like FreeOffice, SoftmakerOffice and WPS are all available for Linux.
Win 8.1 is going to be supported until the spring of 2023 but then things start to get scary. What do we do after Win 8.1 is no longer supported?
