The rumor is that windows 10 is going to be released in July just in time for back-to-school shopping. It is going to be a free upgrade for most users. Are you ready to switch? Is your computer capable of running it as is?
The system requirements are rather moderate:
-
Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster
-
RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) (32-bit) or 2 GB (64-bit)
-
Free hard disk space: 16 GB
-
Graphics card: Microsoft DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM driver
-
A Microsoft account and Internet access
If you are able to run Windows 8/8.1 you will be able to run windows 10. If you are running some previous operating system, the windows 8 upgrade assistant can help you determine if you will be able to use it without issues.
