I don’t know if I’m ready to go from an operating system that occassionally has trojans that make their way in to spy on me or if I want a full blown spying sytem operating my desktop and reporting my every keystroke and webpage to a tyrranical government. I don’t trust a man whose willing to indoctrinate all of our children into socialism so he can make even bigger bucks especially one who wants to trade carbon credits for profit to manipulate the world economy.

I love Windows 10.Its fast and works well on older hardware.The only thing I hate so far is the “Edge”browser.

Why Microsoft can’t make a descent web browser is beyond me but the edge browser sucks.

I did over the weekend and I like it a heck of a lot better than the last version. This one goes back to a more normal Start button in the bottom left corner. So far I don’t have any complaints. The conversion was seamless from the old version and very quick. Of course, I did it on Sunday at 7 AM so that may have helped.

"Windows 10 reportedly reaches 53 million downloads [Three weeks after launch]"

Washington, DC - August 17, 2015 - For Immediate Release

The NSA & our Partner Microsoft want to thank each user for taking steps to download the New Windows 10 Update! The cooperation of hard-working and patriotic Americans makes all our jobs easier. Remember, if you're not a terrorist, you have nothing to hide.

Will it work even if you didn't get a still put in?
