That's what I assumed but I should have done more homework!

Thanks Nick

I was playing around with BranchCache in my test environment and I noticed the 
following behavior:

4 VM's, 2x Windows 7, 1x Windows 8.1, 1x Windows 10

Windows 8.1/10 will not pull from Windows 7, but will from one another.
Windows 7 will pull from Windows 7 (duh) but not from 8.1/10

Has anyone noticed this behavior?

It's not a big deal, just an observation. My environment is mostly Windows 7 
but we have a lot of remote sites with horrible links and I thought this might 
be useful.

Thanks,

Dewayne
