Windows 10?

I'm staying with what I got... I will wait and see how it all pans out.

Nothing has happened on my laptop yet. I'm quite disappointed.

This is being posted on Windows 10. Everything seems to work ok, anyone else jumped in?

I'm liking it so far, the layout is a little different but nothing that can't be adjusted to in 30 mins or so. If I end up not liking it I will just Nuke my hard drive and install a fresh copy of windows 7. Going to try the microsoft edge browser now, see how it compares to chrome (which has massive memory leaks for me atm)

Apparently you have thirty days to roll it back to 7 or 8 if you don't like it.

I'll probably run it in a virtual machine first for a play before I commit the laptop.
I definitely want to see how it behaves with older hardware - I believe there's a compatibility checker.

I won't let it on the company PCs until I'm well convinced.

Left the laptop on all night. Still awaiting release this am.Pah.

I only entered my email address this morning and it started downloading immediately.

Nothing happening here yet. I will just leave it running in the hope that it will be available soon.

Easier, and cheaper, install Linux Mint.

That makes sense, 'though I'd recommend Ubuntu.

Why would anyone buy a Mac? That's a downgrade from Windows 3.11!

One of my machines (both laptops) has dual boot Ubuntu and Win 7, and the other is Win 7, I'll upgrade the Win 7 only one when invited to. Anyone know if Win 10 will run on a dual boot Linux machine?

Possibly not (I haven't read it - I have no intention of 'upgrading' from 7)

Thanks - hadn't seen that.

Looks as if I'll be leaving that machine on Win 7 for the time being then.

Just upgrading one of my laptops to Win 10. I'll report back after I've had a play with the new OS.

Did it just start updating automatically. I registered for the update but nothing so far?

So far so good, everything seems to work. As long as there are no issues I prefer it.
