I need a dual boot 7 and 10 for my business.  Some clients are running
my software on 7 and some on 10.  I need to support and test on both
versions.  I have two big monitors and no room for a dedicated PC or
other monitors.  In the first place, I would not unhook and rehook
them to switch PCs.

Make sense now?  One PC, two monitors.

I ran Windows 10 update.  I could not find out how to download the
Anniversary Edition.  I will try again.
