The processor is an outdated AMD Athlon X2
It is functioning very well and meets all my present needs in my retired life.
This laptop supplements my Ipad and my Galaxy Note "phablet"

I fully agree on the tremendous advantages of Windows 7/8/8.1 over Vista.
But I am most reluctant to take a risk on installing such an advanced operating system on 6 year old hardware.

I foresee, that in a few months from now, I will get a new laptop.
So I prefer not to upgrade now.
Thanks any way for your informative suggestions.

Makes sense. If you are going for new laptop, then no reason to waste time on upgrading OS on current one.
