Even better when you pretend you know nothing (which is true as far as this) and let her do everything, I might even learn something
Caught in the act! Haha.
Yeah I should be able to help. For the most part though, Windows 10 should be completely compatible with anything that runs on Windows 8, and from what I know about the programs you use, there shouldn't be any compatibility issues. Just a learning curve as the design is quite different. There's not going to be any chance of bricking the machine with an upgrade, you just might want to back up your data beforehand (which you should be doing anyways!).
Dual-booting two versions of Windows is trickier than dual-booting Windows and Linux, but it can be done. *Edit to add:* Actually now that I think of it, the tricky part has been gone for years, it should be super straightforward. In any case, I can help you upgrade and/or dual boot next time I visit.
