The future of MS Windows
cesium133:
Eh, I'm sticking with Windows 7, at least until the beta test is done.
Neko_Ali:
I'm waiting to see if anyone reports problems with the new OS and for the first round of patches to come out. I may break out my notebook to upgrade and play around with it, but seeing as how I use this computer for work, and I can't work without it, I can't risk something bad happening because I upgraded.
jwhouk:
I am living in the future.
WindowsX is now on both "active" computers in my house.
(Heh, I wonder if I could try it on that other laptop...)
Grognard:
I have 3 laptops running Win7Pro, the home tower PC running Win7HomePremium, and a missing laptop running Win8.
and I've been hunting the damn laptop, so I can upgrade it to WinX.

Finally got my tablet onto it.
It's nice, it's even faster than Win8 on this (very constrained) hardware.
Modern UI applications (aka Metro applications) are rendered a bit smaller, presumably to work around the fact that Windows 10 runs on 600 px tall screens, versus the 768 px minimum of Win8 (there were 1024x600 Win8 devices, but they used display driver trickery to emulate a higher density). They also aren't getting out of the way of the on-screen keyboard properly, annoyingly. Win32 apps don't get out of the way of the on-screen keyboard at all. Universal apps, however, behave properly.
Otherwise, it's really nice, and Win32 applications playing nicely in the (easy to run applications side-by-side) Tablet Mode (other than the aforementioned keyboard issue) makes a world of difference - in fact, I'll be running Tablet Mode all the time on this machine, even when I use a bluetooth keyboard+TrackPoint with it (which is most of the time).
Oh, and my annoyance about the keyboard not having PgUp and PgDn is still intact. :(
