Windows 7 or 10 for new build
I'm building a new computer and I'm not sure if I should purchase windows 7 or Windows 10. My current computer has windows 7 and has a free upgrade to 10 which I haven't done yet. My impression is that I can upgrade it to 10 and then reinstall Win7 and Microsoft will have an electronic record of the motherboard so I can install and activate win10 at any other time in the future without a license code. Is there any reason to not buy Win 7 for the new computer and do the same thing? Would going to Win 10 directly have any benefits? Lastly I noticed that Amazon is selling Win 10 Pro for $120 from a 3rd party vs $139 from newegg. Any reason not to go with the 3rd party from amazon? Thanks
