RocK 0 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I love Windows 7, I hope Windows 10 will be great as Microsoft is closing down Windows 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris 73 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I am a computer gamer... and Windows 8.1 blows. 10 Should be a huge improvement. 8.1 is really good actually. The RAM handling is so much better than in 8 and 7. Also Windows 10, except for DX 12, is almost the same speed for gaming applications. My problem with Windows 10 is this: most of this is already in windows 8.1 and google has been recording keystrokes in chrome since it's creation, google chrome records searches and omnibox activity to "better" search results anoymously, chromium does not...same as microsoft is asking in windows 10, at least they ask you, google doesn't, you get to opt out of most of these on windows 10 install, Microsoft Ad ID services have been in windows since windows 2000 pro, and existed in msn messenger, and now in skype. wifi sense is an app and all apps can be disabled, just because it has a ping pong app, doesn't mean i have to install it, or let my facebook friends know i have installed it, like most apps with facebook support do..a level 1 telemetry is data thats not identifiable to you, like windows has done for years, it is crash data, error data, locale, edition, etc, the same most decent software also does, you're pictures make you out to be very paranoid lol Beaker speaks the truth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djlatino 9 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I installed the Enterprise version where it automatically ops out of all that garbage. Feels great, and with a Numix Theme, it feels great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stake™ 113 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Well, I've seen a lot people in class upgrading to Windows 10. In my opinion it looks familiar to Mac OSx, which I prefer. It's gross Windows copied Mac's style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stake™ 113 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) Everybody got their own opinion about Windows or Mac. I've had a few discussions today with different classmates saying the same as I said. Although, somebody prefer Apple OSX, somebody prefer Windows. I don't really mind. @Beaker Edited September 3, 2015 by Sick Individuals™ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erza 124 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I like the look of Mac OS, but I like the price of a windows computer more. I don't have the budget to lay down ~1k for a computer. I'm as of writing this still on 8.1 and will most likely not upgrade. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad was still on Windows XP for a very long time until he was forced to upgrade due programs no longer working he really needed on XP. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debug 41 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 I didn't update to Windows 8, and I will not be updating to Windows 10. The day they drop support for Windows 7 is the day I switch over to Apple. I'm not that into gaming, I just do regular stuff, so if Windows 7 gets that done (which it does) I see absolutely no need to upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unknown_pluto 0 Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 I'm on Windows 8, I have a free upgrade aligned and available but I haven't gone through backing up my laptop just yet.It will be interesting to see how many do make the upgrade, especially with the rumours that they'll force illegal ware not to work and watch over what Windows 10 users are doing.

Erza 124 Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 I prefer my computer does what I want, not what Microsoft wants. I hate this new direction companies are taking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
