Generally a good strategy, however I read somewhere that after today it will no longer be free. It will be $119.

Not true. It will not be free after a year.

Not true. No plans to charge for upgrades. The initial roll-out is planned to happen over several months. You can even upgrade pirated copies, misapplied OEM versions, etc. That can always change obviously but no announced plans to charge for upgrades.

contains allot of code stolen from linux and apple opensource
microsoft stole windows 3.1 allot from apple
win95 - win2000 - nt locked up terrible and continually and they never updated the code and always blamed 3rd parties for problems anyone can prove they knew of
infact ms denied allowing fixes to known problems: many suspect they shipped it broken for an agenda. and one agenda was support only for "made in china" electronics - MS often posted defaming articles on everything American (scsi, HP printers, unix, GL, anything)
hell they started off in the 1980's with changing '/d/usr' to 'd:\' simply to be incompatible
today they are only doing the same attacks in a different newer world i imagine

one set of people that LOVED broken ass ms windows was gov workers. they were buying stock and the major users. broken PC means continual employment to fix breakage: breaking they knew was repetitive and would never be resolved

that being said, lawsuits aside i am legally owed (which has been widely published) and havent been paid for, ...
i would use "microsoft" product if paid to (as they are, and only as microsoft employees and gov workers are)
simply put that wont happen because gov workers have turned the field of technology into a field of allowing foreign spies to attack banks and end users and supply rich political families with excuses to bill the taxpayer
they dont pay unless it's a corrupt deal to begin with. they only hire corruptable people.

i still do not have hardware drivers for Made in USA electronics (some of which i still use) from the 80's and 90's - which were promised. the support is anecdotal i could have done myself with the specs. and some specs from the early 90's still withheld.
GL drivers is one. audio is another
why would i trust them again? they are using video cards that are broken and a new revisions continually - guaranteed to break and stop working due to revisionism which is funded and controlled by the same people. the people who are promising you support are the same mother fuckers who want to take it away just after the warrantee period expires.

Can I uninstall windows 10 and go back to my windows 8.1?
My favorites and bookmarks didn't transfer over. Are they lost for good?

Maybe I will run it in a VM but for now I plan to stick with Windows 7 when I need to run Windows. I really can't stand the operating system though. I enjoy Windows randomly thrashing the disk for no apparent purpose being everything to a crawl for a few minutes while it tries to figure out something.
