You've certainly noticed that every other version of Windows is utter shit (95 was OK, along comes 98. 98 SE was OK, along comes ME. Windows XP was OK, along comes Vista. Windows 7 was OK, along comes 8.)

I find it telling that they skipped 9 and went straight to the next shit version.

figure I might as well check it out once it rolls around

maybe I'll upgrade my old Win7 laptop first to see what it's like

Working in the industry lets me hear abit about it. Thus far it sounds like it's shaping up to be worth it.

I'll see if the DX 12 they will bloody ransom onto it makes it worth it.

Might as well upgrade, shit is free!

You'll have a year after the release to decide so if you're apprehensive you can wait around for reviews to stream in.

They skipped 9 because legacy stuff would make it mess up with Windows 95/98 being a thing from long ago. They just plain decided it's not worth fixing the problem, so just skip 9 and go straight to 10

I've been on 8/8.1 for a while and even though I don't have a touchscreen I've sorta warmed up to 8, I hated it at first but now it's alright. I saw the free update but I think I'll wait a bit before I choose if I'll upgrade.

Windows 8 has a built-in backdoor that allows Microsoft to install or remove any application on your computer remotely. That means you have no control over your own PC.

I want to not-believe this so much, but I also remember what Microsoft gleefully tried to pull with the Xbone.

Haven't gotten the popup, but my old 2009 laptop probably couldn't handle going from 7 to 10 anyways (maybe that's why they didn't bother to show it to me). That and the whole idea of "A free-to-start OS" fills me with so many bad vibes. The last goddamn place I want micro transactions and hidden costs is on my goddamn desktop. Will probably stay with Win7 installations even after support is dropped.

You seriously need a source for what has been known for years now?

I work in a large business IT company, and the absence of Windows 9 is the new in-house joke, every day there's a new comical explanation.
