    So a combination of Windows 10 totally making my old i5 Lenovo V570 laptop a cool device to watch reboots of Windows 10 over and over and me desperately wanting to try out Parsey McParseface[^] I installed a fresh copy of Ubuntu 16.04LTS over Windows 10 and I am so happy!! :jig: I have a working laptop again and I don't have to reboot it constantly or watch the screen for something to move. Syntaxnet is compiling as I am writing this so almost there.:java:

      I'm also looking at getting out of MS dev after 20+ years and looking at *nix. I've seriously had it with MS BS.

        Well, all the cool AI stuff is out of windows. Microsoft has the cool API AI, but it just isn't easy to use out of a Windows environment and after using it in Windows 10 IoT it just wasn't happening for what I wanted, imo. I still use desktops for Windows dev projects but Windows 10 was just not working on my laptop and I had enough.

          I've been running 10 for more than 6 months, and hardly ever need to reboot. Seriously, fewer than 5 times this year.

                I've been running 7 for more than 6 years, and hardly ever need to reboot. Seriously, fewer than 5 times this year. Just MS updates.

                  Yes, my experience of 7 was much the same. I was not sure about moving to 10 but since my wife's PC was on 8.1, 10 had to be an improvement. When I saw what it was like I saw no reason not to update my own, and still feel the same. I liked 7 a lot, but 10 is really not that bad in comparison.
