Win 7 will stop purring soon, as Microsoft drops extended support for it 
this month. Following suit, applications will stop supporting 7, as it'll be 
easier/cheaper to support less OS versions. And, expect future hardware 
drivers not to support Windows 7. 

You'll then be open to security issues that aren't patched.

Best to get familiar with Windows 10, its compatibility mode, and if you're 
so inclined, there are tweaks to make it look/feel like XP. I'm sure you 
could mimic the UI of 7 if you wanted, too.
