Is it safe to convert my dad's old Macs to Win 10 Insider Preview?
Long story short, my dad has a couple old Macs that cannot be upgraded past Mountain Lion, and not even Chrome supports that version anymore. I will be unable to convince them to buy new hardware or software, and I can't afford Win 10 keys (which cost more than what the computers are worth). I'm not particularly familiar with Linux, and will be unable to help when something inevitably borks. In fact, I'm a seven-hour drive away and so can't really provide support - though my stepmom's daughter is her techsupport and she deals with Windows.
My understanding is that the Insider Preview program allows Windows 10 to be used indefinitely, as long as you consent to the constant upgrades. Would that be advisable? Or should I really just try to get him a decent Windows laptop like a HP Stream?
Thanks.
