The real truth behind Windows 10.

No it is very good – there is a shop for add on apps though. Install it without worry.

Had installed, uninstalled after 2 days since my system failed to startup. Photo album also crashed after 2 seconds. Start menu also crashed/did not work

SP1???

Please do not install it without looking online for tips on how to disable all the spying features. It is literally the most spying software out there. I have decided not to touch it.

I’m having a flashback here. When Windows 95 was due to be sold in stores, people lined up for days in front of the stores to get a copy. A news team was interviewing some of these people. One guy admitted that he didn’t even own a computer, but that he thought it would be cool to have Windows 95.After SP1 MS has to issue Service Pack 2 to fix the fixes that didn’t fix in the first fix and then fix the fix………oh, never mind.

Prof, I was just making a joke. I haven’t downloaded it yet, so I have no idea if there are any problems. But people a lot smarter than me (which is pretty much everyone) say that it’s ok.

No problem … just hack it.

There is an old saying “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!”. Unless you have a really new machine, upgrading will be a problem. Getting Device Drivers for older machines, for one!

The vat ghoul is a true capitalist.

I installed Windows 10 and had to immediately revert back to Windows 8.1 on my new computer, because Windows 10 wouldn’t play nice with my graphics card and TV. The screen edges were off the edge of the TV screen no matter where I set the resolution. I could “reduce” the TV image and use it with a black box around the picture, but why would I want to do that when both Windows 7 and Windows 8 work great in full screen mode on my TV?

Hey! Where are all the Apple and Linux fans?.Back to the thread; I have read that the Windows 10 EULA is 1984-scary.

Wizard, just pay the fee. Flying attack monkeys are cheap at twice the price.

Stand clear of “Flying Monkey” droppings!

Small price to pay for flying attack monkeys! Besides, maybe the paid version will let you have other options for new functions (weapons, strategies etc)!

Should have ordered the Flying Toasters.

That is the advice I have also gotten !

Kind of like trying to herd cats?

One of the deleted scenes in Wizard Of Oz..Monkeys flinging poo in the haunted forest..lol..

So you installed Windows 10. Did you read the privacy statement when you installed it? Maybe this paragraph will send shivers down your spine.

I use Linux/Ubuntu. Firefox. :)

Every single thing…
