Windows 8 was so bad that Windows 10 would have to suck all the air off the planet to be worse. This is being written on a Win 7 machine and after testing 10, 7 looks odd, not bad just odd. Bottom line 8 is so bad after testing 10 and then down loading it last night 10 looks good.

This.
Try Grapple for Android, it has a naked pixel guy in it! Also, loads of blood and some snakes.

NB: you can only expand it vertically though; horizontal expansion is still way beyond today's technology.
Boo! :thumbsdown:

You just have to press windows + r, then type cmd in the little box that appears there and BOOM! There you have the black screen... xD

Hey, it's Microsoft we're talking about here. Make sure you've got an oxygen tank nearby! :laugh:

Probably the re-introduction of the Start Menu.
Yay! This is the kind of improvement that users get excited about.. putting back features that they already had! :laugh: But when, oh when, can I get a resizable environment variables window? I've been waiting for that feature since 1995.

Search for resize enable. It's somewhat of a hack but I know it works for the environment variables. I've been using it since the Win XP days.
It's a shame we have to resort to third party software to do this kind of thing. Ah well, I guess the guys at Microsoft have been busy for the last few years "designing" squares :doh:

I am guessing a lot of people won't mind being moved away from Windows 8. I think it'd more interesting to see what will annoy people with Windows 10, considering how angry people got over the start menu disappearing in Windows 8.

The bar was set pretty low by 8 for those that didn't like it, so its guaranteed that they'll love 10. Human nature.
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

I know it's supposed to be a free upgrade, that's why we here in NZ have to pay $98 to upgrade our systems. Nothing is ever free.
The difficult may take time, the impossible a little longer.

So if MS is going to "force" you to upgrade, how are they going to reach into your wallet and take that $98? Or did you make the mistake of giving them your credit card details?
The $98 charge is by the oem/shops that distribute the upgrade. If we use the windows update installation method, we can easily blow the data caps on our broadband accounts. I have a reference number from MSTECH services that ensures a free upgrade for my computer, but only that one computer. The catch is that I have to go to the MS office in the city centre to collect my upgrade.

If that's their attitude, the local shops can stuff it. Get the media, and give copies to anyone who asks. The bits are worthless on their own[*]; it's still up to the individual users to get their keys to make use of them. [*] It's a free download available to anyone on MS's own site
