Back to the regularly sheduled programme ....

The guy said in the video that it will be free to current windows 8.1, 8 and 7 users. This better be made crystal clear before I upgrade to 10.

Na.. I think most/all of the questions will be answered in May.. assuming a June RTM. :)

On both Windows betas I was on, we told MS both Vista and Windows 7 weren't ready for prime time, but both were released anyway. Consequently, we were testing Service Pack 1 almost immediately after RTM.

In fact, I was testing SP1 for Vista and using an Alpha (dogfood) version of Windows 7 at the same time. :) And yes, Windows 7 was a whole lot better at RTM than Vista was, but it still had to have a service pack done and quickly!

So, I'm not at all excited to think Windows 10 might be RTMed in June. Not at all.

And now I'm going to go watch "The Voice" with my hubby.

I didn't read all the postings, on the motherboard issue. Motherboard upgrade=New license needed, Motherboard replacement or upgrade to do to damage or stops working=No new License needed and maybe a phone call to Microsoft.

About new MOBO and MACnr. I have used a little trick since Windows XP. When installing an OEM om a homebuild, I insert a cheap Intel netadapter, and deactivate onboard net. Windows is then activated with this Intel netadapter and its MACnr. After windows activating I take the netcard out again, and activate onboard netcard in BIOS. Next time I switch mobo, and install Windows, I put the netadapter in again, and them it is the same MACnr as last time. It had worked with XP, win 7 and win 8 and OEM.
