@ajstringham It is. I was expecting it to be pretty bad, but I actually can't complain about it at all. Other than the fact that I can't continue to keep it for free forever
Does MS have an expected release date as of yet?
-
@ajstringham No one knows, but it's been hinted that it'll be around April in 2015.

That'd be a pretty good timeframe. When was 8.1 officially released?

Ok, so if they were to release it in April of next year, that would mean 8.1 had been live for over a year and a half. Not bad.

@ajstringham Windows 8 and 8.1 users are supposedly getting 10 free.

Really? That's awesome. Of course, NTG has a VL that gives us that anyway, but for individual users that is a sweet deal.

I thought I read on ZDNet or WinITPro that this wasn't going to be the case. I could be mistaken though.
I hope it is cause that would be a great deal.

I'm going to try Windows 10 on the new Lenovo. Ugh with the problems I'm having with this thing. I'd be so upset if I hadn't gotten it free!

@Dominica Just make sure that if you're creating a bootable USB for it, make absolutely certain that it's formatted NTFS.

I haven't heard anything about this particular thing in a while, so I would trust any reputable sources on that subject more than what I've heard.

This is only a rumor

OH? I thought UEFI couldn't boot from NTFS for installation?

That's a new one on me.

One thought on the 'free' or maybe free side is that MS is dropping major releases after Windows 10. From now on they'll be mini updates more akin to what Apple is doing. I think the idea is that you get on a subscription plan.
I'm not really sure how that will work.

You mean a program for OSes similar to Office365, as far as a model?
