Windows 10

[alaskanseminole]

Anyone get the "free" download registration pop-up in their sys tray? I've now received it on all my PCs/Laptops. I have Windows 7 (daughters have 8.1...that I dislike). Anyone have experience with Windows 10?

I just got a new computer with 7 a couple of weeks ago. The pop-up appeared and I reserved my copy. Windows 7 is "old" and 10 seems to be the way to go. That said, even though I will download my free copy, I will not install it for a few months, just to be sure that the bugs inherent in a new release get worked out first. Then I can install it and apply the inevitable patches that will come out.

Windows 10 will be available to download for free for any user using a licensed copy of Windows 7 or 8 for the next year. I would probably suggest registering for it now, but wait until its been out for a month or so to see how buggy it is. From people I know using the pre-release test versions, it is far better than 8 was and has a lot of great enhancements over 7 such as having Cortana built in. I think it's going to be a worthwhile upgrade for anyone using either of those OS's, but I always try to live off of the bleeding edge.

I too registered for Windows 10. I will probably upgrade to 10 on my tablet to start getting use to it and to get rid of 8.1. I'll probably wait to upgrade my other computers.

I'm a Mac user who just got a Windows pc for work purposes and I want to punch Windows 8.1 in the face so hard. I hate it.

I just talked to a buddy last night about Windows 10 - he loves it. He's a tester right now and says it's fantastic. He's currently working on my computer - taking the worthless crap off it to make it run more efficiently.

Anyway, looking forward to trying out Windows 10. I've only heard good things.

My understanding is that Windows 10 is to Windows 8, what Windows 7 was to Windows Vista.

Windows 8 was horrible

W-8 in on the laptop my wife's kids got her for Christmas. I hate it and pretty much won't help her when she has a question. I defer to one of the culprits who bought it.
