What if Windows 10 fails?

It won't. I just downloaded and installed the CTP (or whatever they call it) on an old laptop and it's so much better than Weight. Not as good as Weven, but it has a Start menu. :thumbsup: I also installed the Visual Studio 2015 CTP, and it's looking OK so far. I just need to install SQL Server 2014. So far the ISO has refused to work. :sigh:

If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with!
New version: WinHeist Version 2.1.0 My goal in life is to have a psychiatric disorder named after me. I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too but the possibilities are endless.

Fail is a relative term. A real failure would be for a viable alternative OS to become available and start to displace Windows. For that to occur the alternative must: - Be relatively simple to setup and use - Be open for expansion to hardware vendors - Support any combination of hardware configurations - Be able to run ~10 years worth of backwards compatible Windows software. *** Win the support of developers IMO Linux is the only one that even comes close to meeting those requirements. Unfortunately, there is no consensus between its users. All of which prefer there own distros that may or may not be compatible with other variations of the OS. I have no idea what the future holds, but I would hate to see the open box general PC model disappear and give way to these closed and fixed tablet / All-in-one computing devices.

Oh it won't fail on it's own merits. It's just great and I'm an old fart set in his start menu ways. If 10 fails (And that mean I guess rejuvenates the "platform") it will only because that era is over. And I think it is. More and more the people who come into our shop with computers for us to fix are older. :Ron

CTP5 seems to have take a big backwards step for C++ Intellisense - it almost never gets useful suggestions, previous CTPs were an improvement.

I only do C#.

I do notice that it still reports itself as version 6 on the command line. :|

That's because the older folks with computers to fix are not part of the 'tech-savy' or 'throw-away' societies. The younger folks are either fixing it themselves, or just buying new ones.
Nu - uh They are using tablets and moreover their phones. Kids don't know how to fix em - not at least up here on this mountain.
