I'm waiting until the first quarter of next year to upgrade to ten. I just went into control panel, windows updates, and hid the ten download until I'm ready to install it. And you can configure it like this: How To Stop Windows 10's Spying Ads | Rock, Paper, Shotgun

The Technical Preview gave Microsoft a lot to work with, but yes, they are basically violating your privacy beyond precedent, even for them. So far, the biggest hang ups seem to be:
1. AMD drivers
2. Automatic device driver downloads through Windows update (which can be opted out of, thankfully)
I'm strongly considering Linux at this point more than ever. Linux Mint is nice.

She has Win 7 but is very computer illiterate and fumbles around, (e.g. she just now learned that you can copy and paste a web address into the body of an email, after 8 years using the computer).

Less of a learning curve than going from 7 to 8(.1), though there are some changes that may throw her still. It may be a good idea to let her poke around on your computer that took the upgrade recently and let her decide for herself once she has an impression with that. There's no urgency to make the jump; the free upgrade offer should be good for one year.
