Not scary, but maybe not worthy to upgrade if you are currently on WIn7. :wink:

For me Windows 10 has a few teething problems...but then again it was the same with Windows 7 and the sickly 8.1 update.
I have noticed a few subtle changes, one is that the amount of RAM and Processing power used by the system has gone down alot, before I was using around 2.8-3.0GB of my RAM on just the OS, but with Windows 10 thats gone down to around 1.9, maximum of 2.6, which does have a noticeable effect on applications

No need to be afraid of it though, and as for the laptop power that might be your battery or setup either way
And as for edge, thats just IEx under a new name, its terrible so I just deleted all shortcuts and swapped for chrome again

I kind of like Windows 10, I definitely prefer it over Windows 8/.1, but I'd still prefer downgrading back to Win 7 to be honest

Yes, indeed power consumption decreased in the 3rd day. :wink:

I think it kept updating for some time and has also caused some unrest to my antivirus. :lol:

Edge is very different than IE. It seems more similar to the crappy Google Chrome. So far that's the biggest problem with Win10, but one can still use IE.

Note I have never used 8.1... I upgraded from 7.

I expected a bit more, but it's OK since it's free. :mrgreen:

I have Windows 7 and I barely use any functions. They've e-mailed me to say I am on the waiting list to download 10. They will let me know when my turn has come. :roll:

Gives me time to think, I s'pose.
