I do like your analysis. Though surely non-technical, it is concise ... and, I think, highly perceptive!

Windows 10 will be Good. The Technical Preview, which I believe is now alpha for the tech preview users is solid. The reversed MOST of the mistakes they made with Windows 8.

And you can FINALLY CTRL-C and CTRL-V your way into cutting and pasting into a DOS prompt (only 20 years overdue).

I love 8.1.

It is fast to boot and shut down, and has been very stable.

I took a few minutes to configure the start screen, and while I am not fond of the fisher-price look, it makes finding and opening my favorite applications much faster than mousing-around the old start menu.

Right-clicking the windows icon on the desktop gives convenient access to all sorts of things that make managing my machine easier.

That being said, if you're a computer dummy, it could be challenging.
