WOW!:rolleyes: According to Netmarketshare.com W-10 gained a whopping 1.33% for the month of March compared to February. Considering the upgrade to W-10 is FREE and the coercive tactics M$ is using...
Thanks, Looking into that right now. Have a great day:)
Good for you. I wish I had realized the implications many months ago so I have been playing catch-up ever since. Still have a few registry entries related to the upgrade process that I am not quite...
Agreed 100% BUT!
Avoiding the coercive attempts by M$ to advance their W-10 agenda will be a prolonged process because more than likely your W-7/8.1 OS is infected with the malware-like...
I think the Free Upgrade will remain well beyond the initial drop date. I just can't imagine that anyone that has declined the upgrade will fork out $$$ to replace W 7/8.1. I also think there is a...
The Windows Photo App is probably showing you just a thumbnail of the photo.
I think the real issue here is trust and from Microsoft's own activities they are demonstrating they cannot be trusted.
And the damning evidence is:
Labeling optional updates Recommended or...
To me, this is the lowest of lows!
I was concerned MS might tamper with my auto-update settings or something like that but to package superfluous, self-serving BS into something as important as a...
The unimpressive monthly adoption rates for Windows 10 is not much of a story anymore and the increase for February actually dropped from January. The Windows 10 market-share had been increasing...
From Google "After much thought and consideration, we’ve decided to retire Picasa over the coming months in order to focus entirely on a single photo service in Google Photos. We believe we can...
So a user running either 7 or 8.1 and very happy with their OS, is going to switch to W-10 just so they can install an App that was built for W-10? Yea Right!
:roflmao:
I think if MS had any legitimate grounds to pursue litigation they would do it in a heartbeat and therein lies the quandary. No litigation or threat of litigation = No Justification
So if you are running W-7 that gives you about 3 1/2 years to not even think about it, providing your current hardware is still working and with W-8.1 which I run, I have about 8 years of bliss.

Get Real!

Here is what an actual business software vendor has to say.
"CerTek can assist you, but the is not a free service since it is not a requirement for Artisan nor are there any Artisan specific...
It's really quite amazing that anyone would celebrate W-10 overtaking XP. Really:really:
If anything it should be an embarrassment for Microsoft that anyone is still running XP especially...
I generally agree with everything you have said with the exception of one statement:
MS has a lot of courage to push Windows 10 so hard but I guess they figure it has to be done.
It's not...
Everything is not wonderful with the Windows Store.

Here is a Real-Life example of why the W-10 Upgrade process will not be free for many.
CerTec Software is a major supplier of Point of Sale (POS) to the small business community. In many...
Can't say but I seriously doubt I am the first.:roflmao:
It doesn't take an Einstein or a Hawkins to see the obvious. All this rhetoric about change, this is all manufactured change for the...
On that, I totally agree!:)
Here is another one: "Intelligence is measured by ones ability to determine if change is good or bad":chuckle:
Agreed. That's why I prefer bar graphs for these types of comparisons. If you go directly to the StatCounter page the line graph should be the first thing you see. ...

This is right from the StatCounter web site and anyone can do this for verification.

I used W-10 on one of my machines from the start (8/1/15). Didn't have any total crashes but fairly unstable, but after a couple weeks there was much improvement but I think W-10 is 6-9-12 months...
