Right, it could even be a Windows 7, rather that Windows 10. GUI stuff 
is fully compatible.

There are lots of old licenses from dead machines people re-sell on 
ebay. MS frowns on this, but AFAIK it is legal, at least in the EU it 
likely is.

P.S. If you want to support 32-bit Windows as well, you will need GNAT 
Pro or else stick with a very old GNAT GPL edition. The old GNAT GPL is 
just fine, unless you wanted newer Ada 2012 toys...
