    Nearly 40,000 Microsoft Employees Tested Windows 10 Before Launch

    Redmond says 40 percent of the company tested W10


    Windows 10 was launched on July 29 to users across the world, but testers who were part of the Windows Insider program had received early builds of the operating system many months before in order to help Microsoft improve it before the general release.

    But while Windows 10 was built with help from users across the world, Microsoft also tested the new operating system on computers within the company in order to thoroughly see how early builds work before actually shipping them to insiders.

    And how many of those 40,000 are Ease of Access users? It seemed like that branch of modules have not been revised since Windows XP.

    How many of them had the guts to tell their employer (aka their "Master") how they really feel about Windows10?

    They tested the OS and that's what the job called for. What did you want from them. Tell them is sucked?

    Whoever tested edge, should have not been paid for their lack of effort.
