Windows 10 free upgrade

I've got this offer in my tool tray on my Windows 7 computer. Should I do it or will it be all buggy since it's brand new?

probably a virus.

I would wait as I am sure there will be plenty of bugs found within the first several months. Unless you like being part of the first to have things and are willing to deal with any bugs. Here is a brief article on some changes being made also.

I got the same notifications on my laptop and desktop. I think everyone with a genuine copy of Windows 7 or 8 can upgrade for free. I want to hold off until after I see some reviews on Windows 10 but I'm afraid the offer will expire by then.

I think you want to go ahead and "reserve" your download, maybe even go ahead with the download when it comes out on 7/29. However, I think you have a year to decide to take advantage of the upgrade. I still have two desktops, one on 7 and one on 8.1. I'll probably upgrade one of them right away and hold off on the other until things stabalize.

FWIW, the expectation is for several revisions to come out in the months following.

People who are in the "insiders" program are reporting various issues like you would expect with drivers, etc. The new browser is supposed to be super fast. I'm personally looking forward to Cortana on the desktop.

2 IT guys I know who are using the Windows 10 beta say it is amazing. One of them even said the unimaginable - that he would consider trading in his Mac for a PC once the bugs are worked out.

That's what I'm thinking.

I reserved my copies. Whether I upgrade right away is to be seen. I have an Asus tablet with 8.1. I imagine I will upgrade to 10 right away on that.
