So far as I know, Microsoft does a free upgrade service so stubborn people using obsolete software don't end up as the virus equivalent of plague carriers. That'll probably only be to Win10 when the time comes, but 7 doesn't cost much.
For those of you who are worried about whether your captain caveman computers will run 7, disable aero. That is the only graphically intensive aspect and other than that 7 handles resources better than XP. Hell, for people that are really scared of change you can even download an XP visual pack.
But yeah, it literally does look like you people are holding the server back. Crashes can be fixed, inexplicable widely used unsupported OS' can't.
