I'm not updating because Microsoft has a history of releasing non finished OS's.
 
The three worst OS's for me: Vista, ME & 8.
 
I mean why stray away from what people are used to. My two favorite are Windows 7 & XP. I'm sure they'll screw some stuff up in Windows 10. This isn't even mentioning how buggy it'll be until the kinks get worked out.

I've been beta testing Windows 10 since first announced. It's a great operating system. There might be a couple of bugs but not much more than that.

One thing that threw me off Windows 8 is their starting interface. I'm sure it'll be a nice OS, but not for me.

Well windows 10 dont have the start screen interface it has the Start menu dunno where you been. Also windows 10 is already on over 67 millions devices  since launch so  take a guess what that means . People are using it  heck best buys hghas already had tones of  people want to upgrade and  best buy will do it for you upgrade  your system for you got a friend who is in geeksquad and   they was swamped  on the 29th and yesterday 

Umm. I never said it didn't have the start menu. I know what it has. I'm saying what I didn't like about Windows 8.
 
Geek Squad is a joke and I wouldn't let them touch my system. Hell, I actually get a ton of their business. They charge people $100 to install an OS. Please. I do that for $40 and I do all the updates plus they don't have to wait two weeks.

I won't run Windows 10 period, I like 7.

 what  parts did you like about windows 8 then . and what version and build of windows 10 did you try  because   it  changed allot over the pasy  year many tweaks and UI tweaks and feature tweakes based on user feedback

Have you even tried windows 10 for yourself  tried the RTM build before saying you wont even touch windows 10  i assume  you have not   Well it  is ok if you dont wan tto use it i guess since  it is already on 67+ millions systems  as of yesterday  that is even more then windows 7 had  in the same amout of days  if i recall  and oh yea Windows 10 is every eveovling   OS as  it  is a windows as a service so Microsoft will keep rolling out updates  and new features as time goes   by  and you can still gibve your impute to MS on things  

Have I tried it? Yes and no. I've tried it on another computer and I disliked it, I disliked the way it looked and several features. Have I tried it on my own PC? No. I could of looked at Windows 10 from get go and told you I wouldn't like it even before I tried it, because I like certain aesthetics and windows 8 & 10 lacks what I prefer.

I couldn't tell you which build it was. I got on it for 5 minutes and said it was crap. I just don't like the way 8 or 10 is setup, but at least 10 seems to be better off than 8.

well I found a pretty severe bug that makes the OS unstable and useless to me. My system even without any updates installed and using windows 8.1 video drivers still locks up and crashes every 30-45 minutes, nothing prevents it. 8.1 works just fine on it how ever, just 10 is unable to work at all. Maybe it doesn't like my chipset, or maybe it hates Core2 quads I dunno, but if windows 10 is a functional OS I havn't seen it

What does your device manager look like? Any yellow exclamation marks there?

You guys are to  Picky agian just to Picky because   that 1 thing that  MS did not take to much impute on  the Windows updates and such  you all get bent out of  shape. i dont see any gaming sites  that have done review not recommending windows  because of that.  and no out of that 67 millions  upgrades in 2 days   i  am sure yes some  went back some but not a whoile  lot   cause i care more  about performance myself then a stupid update  thing   as  i deal with it  .  
 
 Anyways Microsoft is already gonna be pushing out a  SR1 next week or the week after  Service Release 1  with many new update fixes and  other fixes form what  i been reading and they will continue to  do so over the course of days and months   on a regular bases   
 

Microsoft had early on stated that this would be the final release of Windows with just overall maintenance from here on out. This is nothing new and was expected. What is also understood is that of the reportedly 67 million devices which are now running it many, if not the majority, were done automatically based on the initial Windows 7/8/8.1 automatic updates settings where the user just blindly updated to the new OS without actually initiating it. Of that number a very small amount (roughly less than 1%) were those who actively took part in the technical preview prior to release. Of that number only a small portion (I was and still am one of them) who reportedly responded to Microsoft with criticism about the privacy issues and data being collected along with my flat disappointment with their decision to take updating out of the hands of the users and make it solely in the hands of Microsoft unless you pay to have particular licenses to avoid their obvious bad patch mistakes. Let's also not forget that mainly those of us who, in your terms are 'picky', are so because we desire to have absolute control of how our systems are and what, if anything, they do.
 
Giving up your rights to customize the system and your privacy does not equate to satisfaction in having a new, currently freely available, update just because it has the potential to perform better for applications that currently are not able to take advantage of graphic rendering extensions as they are tied to the OS overall and not separate. Microsoft could easily allow DirectX to be platform independent and available for all previous operating systems. They choose not to do this.
 
Also remember that Microsoft asked for input from the general public about their needs/wants and to give them suggestions as to the overall improvement for the new version. They flatly ignored these suggestions and concerns in favor of their own apparent potential monitization of the operating system as a whole.

Don't bother trying to debate anything or use logic or rationality or appeal to common sense with 'notuptome2004' - clearly the guy is a massive fanboi and MS could probably come along and shoot his cat/dog, beat his grandma senseless with a baseball bat, and give him an enema using battery acid, and he'd still be arguing how great they are.
