No, there are some of us older than me on the forum—in their 80’s

Yes there are and one of them still uses a chain saw.

To trim ear hair?

Its not me.....but I could think of a use for one, M$ have in my opinion lost the plot, making what should be a simple O/S that the average user needs into a monstrous behemoth riddled with bugs.

Indeed and they keep getting worse with each new release. Features that I do not want or need. All I do is Game and browse the NET, I have no use for Virtual Reality though some might, the Millennial's.

My PC will not handle the next build and at 70, my patience with MS personnel is not what it was 10 years ago.

I have 7 years on you, so you’re still young enough to give lots of feedback—and your pc will handle another build—-I have one that’s a really really antique—-centrino2 laptop. It takes a long time but it finally updates.

Wow ! somebody older than me. That doesn't happen on tech forms very often from what I see. You got me by 2 years.

Congratulations

@storageman, Here's the defacto age list: Which age category do you fall in? Click on the totals to the left of the percentages to see the age groups and members. I'm in the 61-70 group, still a young geezer at 67.

Dear Microsoft,

Please (please!) release 1809 immediately. I don't care how many bugs it has - in fact, the more the better. We just need something (anything) Windows 10 related to talk about that isn't to do with trimming ear hair with a chainsaw (shouldn't that have been nose hair?).

Yours sincerely,

Bree. (66)
