Watch the 10 launch event

Thank you for this!!

Why would they name it just "10"? I really, REALLY hoped they'd come up with something catchy, modern, USEFUL. I gotta watch the event, haven't had internet at work for a week now, I apparently missed EVERYTHING xD

"Windows 10 represents the first step of a whole new generation of Windows."

I guess it's just more suitable to start from 10 rather than 9. They have their reasons it seems - I for one don't care as much what's it called, as long as it'll be good!

Thanks, sure caught me flat footed with the name! Poor 9, will never be. I guess 8.1 is really 9.

That's all fine and dandy, but they could've given it an actual name, not just a fancy new numbering
