Having the latest and greatest software isn't a big deal for most people, but it is important to always have software that is still receiving security updates from the manufacturer.  Windows 7 was very good and still works well, but you need the security fixes so upgrading is important.

Doing the upgrade is generally easy and seamless although it can take a while so set aside some time and get a good book. The Key though is to make sure that your system is powerful enough to handle windows 10.
Manufacturers LOVE to sell new computers that are low on memory because 90+% of people will replace them when they get too slow rather than upgrade the hardware.

For windows 10 I would recommend at least 16GB of RAM and a minimum of 64GB of free space on your harddrive.

If your 5 year old machine doesn't meet those specs you would probably be best served with replacing it.
If you aren't sure about the specs on your computer, you can post the brand, model # and serial # here and I can probably find them for you.[/quote]
