I'm always hesitant to upgrade and took a lot of convincing to move to Win 10 but I did several years ago and it has to be the best version of windows I've ever used.
Rock solid, great driver support and just works. I wouldn't go back to 7 now.
What I have found aggravating about the one newish laptop that I have which came with Win 10 preinstalled is that every time I turn it on, it's doing updates or downloading a massive patch or update. I have to sit and wait for that to finish instead of getting right to work. And I hear on PC centric discussion forums that Win 10 updates sometimes brick the PC or make it impossible to boot, or break existing software and that these updates cannot be turned off like with Win 7.
I stick with Win 7 because I have total control over it. It doesn't do anything I don't allow it to do. Win 10 is like Big Brother in every PC its in. And the annoying menu start interface is like a tot's toy. What designed that, Fisher-Price?
Initially, I resisted even Win 7 because of the activation aspect of it, and realizing that I might not be fully in control of my PC if someone like M$ can pull the plug remotely. I still have boxes here running XP. |
