Ooops. We'd be counted among those 'in denial' I suppose, though in our case really it was blind ignorance as to the impending demise of XP.



Our clunky old XP PC suits our modest needs perfectly well, but it looks like time for a new machine.



We're non-techie, don't need high performance anything and would like an o/s that's as intuitive as possible and as similar to what we already know as possible.



Any advice much appreciated.



eta: we have a huge external h/d that might come in handy for a migration I suppose.
