Windows 10 anyone??

<< < (2/2)

Boggin:
I used to have it on this laptop but it had a few problems so I reverted it back to Win 7.

I'm in two minds whether to give it another go because of the intrusive nature of it and MS collecting this that and the other through it.

I can't shake the feeling that MS had other motives for offering this upgrade for free.

what better way to test an os thats almost complete than giving it away for free and have all the major kinks fixed yeah its free but that makes people want to upgrade quick so release early find bugs here and there hot fix this and that. Its a great marketing strategy get everyone on the same platform. I dunno just takes the major jump into nt meaning "new technology " what im mainly concerned about is the Windows app store. They took out Windows update cpl in control panel and they are planning on removing control panel completely and convert everything to the settings app and immersive control panel.

There's still quite a few who cannot run Win 10 because of graphics compatibility problems so not everyone is going to be on the same platform - as for ironing out the bugs, wasn't that what the TP version was for ?

Yes that was for people who wanted to test it. Call an os rtm and force everyone to test it. Now you start seeing all the bugs you did not see during tp because everyone uses computers for so many different things. Now you have a bigger group and they start getting hardware from all sorts of manufactures. To be honest this happened when 7 came out as well it's just Windows can run on sooo many setups.
