[Trainer-Talk] Putting Windows 10 on a Mac

[Wayne Merritt]

Thanks all for the good responses. Maurice brought something up which
I wanted to ask about. I understand that currently people can upgrade
to Windows 10 for free. For some background, I have Windows 7 on a
laptop which I got in 2011 and don't use anymore. Getting the laptop
to do much of anything is an exercise in patience. Would I be able to
upgrade for free to Windows 10, and if so what do I need to get from
my Windows 7 laptop to prove that I have a licensed copy of Windows?
Can someone explain how that might work, such as what I would need to
get from the laptop, and how I might get the ISO image? Would I get it
from Apple or someplace on the Microsoft website? I know these are
newby questions but putting Windows on a Mac is totally new to me.

Thanks,
Wayne
