Now here's a quote for y'all:
"There will be tens of millions of users familiar with the operating system before the end of 2015," research vice president Steve Kleynhans said in a statement.
How is that a good thing??? Microsoft already claims over 110 million installed copies of Windows 10.

If ONLY "tens of millions" of the users are familiar with the operating system a month from now, what about the other 90 million users? Is Gartner implying that they haven't a clue what they're doing in Windows 10?

Somebody explain this Marketing Speak to me, please...

Well, to be fair, it is my experience that most Windows users haven't a clue what they're doing... So yes, the statement about Win 10 would be par for the course. ; )

The 10 million will be familiar with the "undocumented features" (that which we call "bugs/glitches/FUBAR").

The rest will have to wait their turn to recognize that something is wrong....
