Do you think you will upgrade to Windows 10?

Yepperz, I'll give it a shot

I've got to sort out what VM to use on this Notebook so I can install to that, I'd like to try it before the final comes out. :)

I have it installed on one machine and am going to put it into a VM on this machine and may put it on another machine too. Everyone needs to remember it is just a preview, basically a rough draft. Feedback is important, and hopefully Microsoft will listen this time. As a rough draft, I think it shows promise so far. I feel like most others about the cloud, I don't like that. I want my stuff on my machine. Microsoft is aiming for everything in the cloud, which does have it's merits, even though I don't like it. With everything in the cloud, it doesn't matter what machine you run, when you link the machines they will all have the same info available to you. Some things I don't mind putting in the cloud, other things just won't happen. But, the cloud is where they seem to be going with this and most everything else. The cloud has it's merits, but I just don't want it, I have my own 'cloud', thank you very much.

I agree, however, windows is for every type of user, and a majority of users who can't afford a mac and aren't technically minded will see this as a good thing, I suppose it'll make our jobs easier knowing that ID 10 T errors won't cause massive amounts of data loss

I remember

People ask me "You must have seen some of the great R&R bands, did you ever see XYZ or DEF?"

I honestly cannot remember - for the longest time I might say that I wish I had seen The Allman Bros. Band. A friend brought up the '73 Summer Jam and after I looked at the bands that played there ... I actually had seen The Allman Bros. Band.

There's about ten years that are fuzzy - some memories are clear, others ... not so much

Anyway, I finally downloaded the preview - Thanks for the alternate download John!
Plan on running it in Win8 Hyper-V

New experience all the way around!

Does anyone know how to disable the start button?

Most likely not. I didn't even install Window 8 to even test/try it out. I didn't really like the look of it or the sound of it anyway. I'd rather stick to Windows 7 and Mac OS X.

Maybe

I have saved room for it on one of my SSDs and downloaded Microsoft's offering the other day.
