Gabe Carey writes, "For those of you out there eager to do away with Windows 8, opting once again for a virtual ecosystem guided by the oft-adored Start button, you’re in luck.

or you can just use the windows tool kit, but often if you are installing o a device that has genuine windows, it wont require activation at all.

Whats the install size for the final release version ?? How much space exactly will we need ?

CurrentDigital3195d ago

Windows 10 upgrade notifications will stop trying to trick you

People should upgrade to W10, don't get why they wouldn't want it.

KingPin2856d ago

some professional software isnt compatible with windows 10 yet throwing unknown errors and constant issues.

and then theres the spying software that some people are not to keen about. forced updates for home users (WGA anyone?)
some devices dont work with 10. printers and peripherals.

on a personal note: i've upgraded to 10.....but linux mint is my default OS.

annoyedgamer2856d ago

Or maybe Microshaft should stop using malware to push their spyware service? Win 10 is horrendous ( I have used it). It has few benefits over Windows 8 and even less over 7.

Grap2856d ago

"Win 10 is horrendous"
by that statement i know you haven't fully used it.
I get people who don't use it for spyware service reasons and i sympathies with them, but in no way of shape or form W10 is less than W8 or even 7, MS really outdo them selves with W10 and if it weren't of their spyware service i would say it's even better than XP.

TXIDarkAvenger2856d ago (Edited 2839d ago )

I would have agreed before but because they force updates it breaks some of my programs and there is nothing I can really do about it.

lol this is great.. You guys act like Microsoft just started spying on people.. This has been going on for years
