I still don't get where people are saying it's a dud OS...it has a better growth rate that Windows 8.1 or 8 had, IIRC.
Does that include all the semi-forced upgrades? I'm not so sure so many people would have upgraded if Windows didn't pester them the way it did.
Not saying that Win10 is bad, just saying that the comparison might not be fair to Win8.
I reserved the free update for eligible machines and reverted back to previous OS'es. There will be a number of more updates before Windows 10 becomes mature and more polished. Do you feel like a beta tester? I don't.I have a strange mix of feelings towards Windows 10. So far it has been incredibly fast and stable. Everything on my 6+ year old motherboard (which doesn't even have Win8 support) worked flawlessly without manually installing any drivers.
On the other hand, there's a lot about the UI I really don't like. Some stuff seems to be in rather strange places and I am a little concerned about arbitrary changes MS may make down the road. There's a surprising lack of polish that almost makes it feel like a step back in some ways.
after windows 10 there is going to be nothing else from microsoft

Same here. It's also incredibly ugly. I mean, why can't UI's be pretty? You're staring at them all day, after all. A tiny bit of color, a gradient, a playful bubbly icon... Sometimes I miss my Windows 7.
I actually prefer the windows 10 interface to previous OS's. The thin edge borders mean I can get more meaningful content on my screen at a given time in lieu of the thick borders.
It looks like as if Microsoft were planning a substitution service of some sort. But if anybody here is on a first name basis with Bill Gates or the current CEO, what was his name. They might give you some more definite clue.After Windows 10 what? Going back to Windows 7, or what!
