    I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

      I don't even notice which OS I am running. As long as I can easily start a dev-friendly command line shell, a web browser (don't care which) and the few desktop applications I still use, I am happy with it.

                    That wasn't because of Windows 10. That was because our IT department is a bunch of retards. They actually had a DBA drawn in to fix what amounts to a network permissions issue. He didn't have the necessary permissions to effect change, and even if he did, he's a freakin DBA, NOT a network system admin. After half a dozen emails between us, I said, "Call me crazy, but OUR Net Ops guys should be talking to THEIR Net Ops guys, and you and I shouldn't be trading emails about this at all." I think someone saw the logic there, and all of a sudden, I'm no longer in the email chain. That's fine with me.

                      I agree with that but it's really not saying very much. It's kind of a lesser of two evils situation with those, for me.

                          I know you probably don't give a shiz, but I like it quite well. I think it's better than Win 7. Been using Win10 for 3 or so years since the preview came out. I wonder if the issues you have with it are due to third-party hardware, drivers and software?

                                    Yeah, I'm not a super fan of that either. They're trying to tax other people's work.

                                      Aside from the overnight unattended restarts, I haven't had any problems with it. The biggest plus for me is getting taskbars on multiple monitors. The worst to me is still the start menu. That said, I would have been quite happy plugging along with Win 7. I remember the happy days of leaving work with 'work in progress' not having to worry about losing my place due to an elephanting unattended restart! Win 7 did spoil me in that regard. :)

                                        Would Classic Shell[^] or Start8/Start10[^] help?  I installed Start8 at work when I was forced to move to Win8 a couple of years back, which returned Win7's productivity back to my desktop. /ravi

                                          +1 for the NUC. I'm a fan. Mine runs my 4K TV (and additional monitors via VGA->USB), and I use it to remote into all the VMs I have running on my beefier machine sitting in another room.
