I'm using a win7 computer right now... so far no issues with no ms support. as long as that's the case, I'll continue to use the EQ7 installed here. I don't really want to learn something new right now. When I go to FL this winter, though, I'll be taking my win10 laptop and will install EQ8 on it and learn it there. A couple of times recently, I'd wanted to design a quilt with features that I can't seem to do on EQ7 and know that are available on EQ8, so am looking forward to that.
