I have it "reserved", not real fond of the Windows 8 my new laptop is running , probably because most of the computers I use are still running much older programs.
I am interested i can also upgrade for free but my concerns are "drivers" I have always had problems finding new drivers, specially for laptops.
I actually heard from a tech geek the systems with Windows 7 run faster with Windows 10. Interested if that is the real life case.

"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles. --Jeff Cooper"
My feedback
I plan on installing 10 on my PC at home as soon as my update is available ... but at work I'm going to wait a while.

A World Without Guns <- Great Read!
If you don't rely on the laptop for work it might be worth a try. It seems like the early reviewers are very impressed with how smoothly their laptops transitioned over. They also included an easy way to revert back to your previous version of windows if it's not working out.Originally Posted by Skully
I've only upgraded my Surface (from 8.1) so far. After all the tedium of changing security settings and personalization like with every fresh OS install it's going fine. I had to chase down an issue with something draining the battery at a rapid rate but it wasn't that hard.
So far it's a lot better than 8 but I haven't seen a good reason to update my Windows 7 desktop. Your experience may vary.
The "k" is silent.
The most positive thing so far is that my wife, who is not technical, has not gone nuts. I am sure the sub-surface changes are substantial, but for the most part, it's close enough to the Windows 7 interface that the casual user will be just fine. I haven't plugged everything in yet, but so far all of the drives, printers, cameras, and graphics tablets I have seem to be working well enough. My desktop is nearly 10 years old and has several older programs and applications on it. All the ones I have clicked so far seem to launch and function fine.
Curiously enough, I have not received the upgrade for my Transformer tablet as of yet, which actually runs on 8.1. Will be curious to see how Win10 translates to the tablet.

Make sure you turn off all the Cortina stuff aka we will listen and record everything you do and send it off to the cloud so we can analyze it.
It's under Advanced options during the install. Everything is on by default and you need to turn it all off.
What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

The audio is not an issue for me personally, because my old assed desktop does not have a mic, either internal or external.

Supposedly edge runs way fast. If I do it may be good upgrade from the whore chrome has become. Unsure about upgrading though as my system is getting a tad antique and I'm a gamer and there are some driver issues this fresh into release. Some aesthetic issues too, I wish the 7 theme would stay.
