    The last 6 months proved that there is not much to wait for - except you failed and installed 8.x

      Notional plan is my laptop the 2nd weekend in August (let other people be first upgrade suckers), my spare desktop the weekend after, and my main desktop a few weeks to a few months later. The latter will Depend on how smoothly the upgrades go and on various internet trouble reports. DX12 will be a mandatory gaming feature, probably within a year; worst case if it looks rocky I'll probably wait until my standard 2 week leave burning event around xmas/new years.

        well, as per my past experience i started to use any latest version when Microsoft stop support for that version or when they are about to launch a newer version. this happens with xp, 7, vista and 8.1. let's see, may be i will get window 10 when window 11 is about to launch :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

          I might give it a try as a dual boot if I can be bothered. Otherwise I'll wait until the very last day it's free. W7 does everything I need in a way that I'm totally at home with. What's the hurry?

            If it's as poorly implemented as VS2015, I'm not so sure. Man, that SPOCS* is bug ridden. *Steaming Pile Of Crud Spittle.

            What surprised me is the number of crashes in 2015 - I had no that problem while beta testing...

                  I'm with you. In fact I'm about six months behind you, just make sure you find all the bugs so that when I come along I can use the OS without any problems. I'm covering you - go on ahead and scout the territory.

                    If you are telling me that VS2015 is crap, then I am definitely not going to install it. I have already received my MSDN subscription email that I can download it - no thank you; I don't need the headache.

                      It's worse than that. It's slow crap.

                        Depends. If it's still in "Fisher Price" mode, then no, it not good news. If it's a return to being a sensible desktop OS then yes. But don't forget: a lot of fanbois loved Win 8 when it came out. And Vista. And ME. Just because some people say it's good doesn't mean it will be...

                        Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
