I do too. All my PCs have Win7 Pro and Linux/Ubuntu. Recently got a powerful MacBook Pro. I put Parallels on their but scaled back to win7. Pure hatred for Win8 LOL. Lemme tell ya, Apple knew wtf they were doing. Simplest UI I have ever used.

Speaking of failures btw. My main laptop is Dualbooted with unbuntu and I forgot. So I tried to d/l and install WIn10 through windows update...ugh now I'm downloading through the media creation on a USB like I should have to begin with.

Win10 is fast and smooth. I'm running this on some old hardware too. Hmmm...Not bad. Start menu is back. It feels more like a Windows PC unlike Win8. Nothing confusing, no stupid side scroll, and it runs smoother for me because I did a fresh boot. Not much docs on this PC. I'm gonna try out cortana in a bit. But TBH I just like how smooth it is. I'm still not going to run IE though. Chrome all the way for me.

I like to run ubuntu too. I think it's a great OS. My preference on my air is the mac OS X. I have troubleshot Windows 8 many times for friends and every time I do I feel like smashing the machine. No bueno.

Majority of the issues have to deal with Windows Update too. I finally figured out that you had to manually stop the program and then delete it's cache, and the softwaredistribution download folder. Then it downloaded and install every single update smoothly. Thankfully on Win10, that's all done in the background without interference.

Oh and I found out today that my Product Key is BBBBB-BBBBB-BBBBB-BBBBB-BBBBB. A fkn Volume License...Now I gotta wait for a product key. I know Win10 upgrades work with Win7 keys, but IDK about VL Win 7 Pro keys. I highly doubt it. We'll see. I still have Ubuntu, so there's that once the license expires.

Isn't there a keygen for win10 yet?

IDK. I don't **** with keygens anymore. I pirate and all but keygens are a no-no on Windows for me.

I have to use windows to run a couple industry apps so I run a modded XP on parallels. I used a keygen to activate it and it's been issue free for over a year. I don't know much about Win10 yet.

I mostly use a Mac but I've had no issues with Win 10. (<- No MAJOR issues. There are small glitches)

Here's a review:

You can plug in a controller and play it like an X-Box. That's neat, right?

Can season 6 start already for GoT?

Can the fat fool get on with the next novel before he dies?

Television wise, the end of GoT is already planned, in case of his death.

I have been happy so far with Windows 10. It kept everything from Windows 7...LOL

My Dell bluetooth mini receiver isn't functioning well unfortunately; I hope that couldet fixed. Also, how do I use Windows Med Player as my default player?

I've been running windows 10 for a few months now as a Windows Insider. It's nice (much better than that Windows 8 garbage). I got a free Keygen for trying the beta build.

I am still looking to jump ship to a MacBook Pro the first chance I get though.

There's a second hand website based out of Tampa that boasts good prices. I have ordered from there a few times for a few employees. Google "macofalltrades".

And his son will finish the novels in the same case.
