I'm glad I held off installing Win 10. The more I learn about it, the less I like it.

that might have answered my question mirth

i was going to ask, seen as im still getting pestered by my desk top, is the concensus of opinion to hold off?

Well, you should always give it time to mature as a general rule anyway to be honest, regardless of OS.  Let the mugs do the beta testing for you!

Huw is correct. It's usually best to avoid being an early adopter of any new software.

We've been using W10 for the last 3 weeks and no problems so far. It seems faster than W7 anyway.

True. I'll also be missing again for a couple of days as we have to drive down to Birmingham tomorrow to see my mother who has been taken into hospital.

She's 89 and has a few problems, so not sure what action we will be able to take. Living far away does not help in such situations either.

Sorry to hear about your mom, Bob. I hope everything is ok.

Upgrading to Windows 10 put Bob's mom in the hospital!?  Not cool, Microsoft, not cool.
