The bit I don't quite get is why people feel so tempted to upgrade the OS, unless we're upgrading the computer itself.
I just think it's always a good idea to have the latest software installed. Yes updates are useful but sometimes a new operating systems is required because new programs wont run on the older system e.g. Lightroom 5 would not run on my Vista.
I upgraded to Windows 8.1 and I'm happy with it but when Windows 10 comes along for free I will upgrade, I wouldn't have though if I would have to pay for it, I'd have left it util I needed to upgrade again.

This thread is supposed to be about Windows 10 being free.
Its always refreshing when a company gives something away (even though we know there is probably a commercial reason behind it) so the free upgrade is welcome. We have had Dx0 Pro 8 free lately and though not free it was brilliant when Adobe reduced the cost of buying Lightroom from over £200 to just over £100! All these things help us people on a budget.

Nigel - what's this 3rd party add on you keep on about??? I don't have any add on's - I right click to log off.
You mention about all of the people who aren't happy with the system but how many people are happy? You don't like it fine but for me I still think its the best operating system by far.

All I know Nigel is I installed Windows 8, updated to 8.1 with no problems, it still runs really well - exactly what you need from a product.
I would think that was the bare minimum you would expect from a product

Maybe what you should expect but it's not always the case!

Then you are not understanding people ! Just like Microsoft clearly did not understand a great many of its customers . And that situation is a problem for any business.
