Yea, I was caught off guard to see there's a Get Windows 10 icon sitting next to my clock this morning (especially on a corporate PC which wasn't eligible for the free upgrade, at in what they had previously explained.)

I don't have a test machine to play around with it, but it sounds better than Windows 8.1 and that's all I really want.

I didn't bother with 8 at all...running a 7 machine still...but I'll jump to 10. I like what I'm seeing there.

Still not tired of the joke that "Windows 9 was apparently so bad, even Microsoft skipped it".

Apparently the European Commission and Microsoft worked out an agreement whereby Windows users who have Internet Explorer as their default web browser receive a screen that lets them know that other browsers are available. It's pretty interesting to me....
