It's decided
-
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.
I am kinda the same :-)

Didn't you get a paid day off yesterday? That's something to like. :)
He will make them pay :-\

I use it, but I still don't like .Net.

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.

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?

I've used Mint and Cinnamon. Very nice. Still like Windows 10 better.

It's nothing more than change for the sake of change. Microsoft is trying to get their users to do what apple users do - download "approved" apps from an app store.

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. :)

I don't have admin permissions to install anything. This is a DoD system.

A very good start. Commendable, in fact! Now take it to the next step, where I reside: I don't get invited to meetings, either.

A victim of social engineering professionals! It is not normal or acceptable for your computer to do things (like restarts) without your permission. Trust me on this - things used to be different. Before the great fear began to hover in the background . . . waiting for just the right moment to strike.

I overheard this once: Dept Head: Maybe we should include John in this meeting. (my) Manager: I'm not sure we wanna do that. Dept Head: Why not? He knows his sh|t. (my) Manager: I know, but the network guys don't like it when someone tells them the god's honest truth. John tells the truth with no filters. Dept Head: Hmmm, maybe you're right, but we should keep John in mind if the network guys need a dose of truth telling. (my) Manager: Sure. I'll give him a heads up. The meeting happened, and evidently, I wasn't needed. So silver linings...
