Is anyone else running the Tech preview? I like what they have done especially the start menu - still a little more customization is prudent though.. I would like to be able to use the pictures for icons a lot like Steam uses in the library.. I want custom blocks. everything else appears to work except my online email, when I click on an email it kicks me back to the main login page.. other that that its working well... firefox does not have that effect in win10

Whats the difference between 8.1 with a start button and Win10?

Win 10 is going to have a lot more changes under the hood than the way you see it work.

Expect it to be a Win 8 without all the retarded afterthoughts that is metro.

They are saying that the changes will be similar to the stability and performance increases from 7 to 8.1 were. There was a huge increase in overall performance of course and if what they say is true it will mean good things. I'll wait and see before I buy.

running it in a VM at work. start menu is a good compromise between old and new. i like it so far. i guess i will upgrade to 10 when it's out.

i'm also looking out for 10... seems better then 8 so far, and it seems to be a tradition for me to skip a window version everytime. so it's a natural feel for me to jump from 7 to 10. :)

So long as it doesn't have the mutated afterbirth that is called metro on Window's 8 I'll be happy. But I swear to all that is mighty, if Microsoft tries telling me what I should like by forcing retarded features and redesigns that are terrible for PC I will switch to linux or steam or EVEN MAC....

Win8 dump you back into that metro crap where as 10 is dynamic as far as the device you are using - on a table it uses a mobile setup - plug in a keyboard it goes into pc mode - See this Montoya >>>
