Status: offline Ribbons : 115 2016/09/26 21:08:20 (permalink) The latest Microsoft operating system is drawing fire from computer users, who complain about technical problems, including being relentlessly badgered to install updates. Some users say the problems are so disruptive that they have had to pay someone to fix their computers. Others who have experienced glitches thought the problem was with their computer — and not the software — and mistakenly brought their computers to a repair shop. https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/computer-users-unhappy-windows-10-065037083.html I bet a lot of computer repair places made a lot of money.

This may bring in more Mom & Pop Computer Stores like back in the 80's and 90's. post edited by bcavnaugh - 2016/09/26 21:18:55 Associate Code: 9E88QK5L7811G3H #2

I don't really care about DirectX12 for now and hopefully Vulkan becomes the API of choice in the future, so we can step away from Microsoft. With Great Power, Comes Great Mistakes #5

Admit that I liked the menu better pre-anniversary edition, but I do like the OS. I keep drivers up to date myself. Use O & O Shutup tool to lock it down and the machines are quite responsive.

Long live the 7!!! Unfortunate if I ever want to upgrade from X79 I must buy the 10 As long as your popular enough, you can get away with anything. #9

Even if DX12 went to Win7, I would still keep my computers on 10. #11

It performs better for me than 7 and the interface is 2nd nature to me since I deal with a lot of WS2012R2 at work. Most people that I know are constantly having issues on their Win10 machines and it becomes a chore to research how to make undo something and keep it from getting redone 1 hour later!
