The only starter that pleased me was the soup XD I don't like salad at all!
Thanks for the idea with the stew, sounds good and seems to be really easy to cook. But as you stated the meat was worth it and i tasted very good although i would add selfmarinaded spareribs next time as they are yummi as hell

If I would, I'd go to Wacken.
But I have small children and a wife that's not interested in the same music as I am.

Turned on my PC this morning and a little flag has appeared in the system tray: "Get Windows 10" 
I dunno. Should I click it? Or is it going to be more Win 8.2.1 and really annoy me?
Now, where did I put that disk imager...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

It's not out yet... my family's Windows 7 machine got that popup earlier. It looks like it's just a way for you to reserve a free upgrade to Windows 10, so that when it's released, it will auto-download to your PC. So... I mean, if you want it when it comes out, go for it.

Oh, crap... it's in my tray, too. Is this a test? Do I really trust Microsoft to automatically install a new OS when they can't get a simple patch to work 50% of the time? I think I'll let it stew a while, until I hear some reports of how it all went, and how much irreplaceable data was lost in the process.

That was my (rather selfish) thought as well: let the "early adopters" take the pain... And do a fresh disk image before installing...

Hi Griff - I received it ( the notification ) this morning too - what disk imager do you use ?

DON'T PANIC!
It won't be an automatic update. You just get the necessary installer downloaded as soon as it goes public. If and when you run it will be entirely up to you!

If you delete the correct MS updates, i think the specific Update Numbers are published it won't annoy you anymore. They "patched" a please get Win 10 so everybody does it ASAP because they won't be annoyed anymore.

My son has been using it on his dev system (web development) for sometime, and reckons it is really quite good.

Yeah, but was he a Win8 Fanbois? Because some of them would like anything...

As far as I've seen it is more like a Win 7 - Linux Desktop merge.
With additional Tiles, for those who want them.
In short, it looks like Win 7 with a flattened start menu. What most people probably will struggle with is the multiple desktop thing.

So you have Windows 7 with Windows 8 license (downgraded)...
What is really interesting that 10 should be released (OEM) only in late July...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Yep, I now have a Windows symbol in my desktop's task bar, combine that with an unhealthy amount of disc access. It looks like it will be upgraded for free (?) I was gonna post has anyone else seen it but this answers my question.

Our government is running XP. The American IRS is running XP. The English goverment is running XP.
Now I should move to "Windows 10", because Win7 would not be secure enough? To take the slogan of the Excell-team to another level, I'll be eliminating my dependencies to Windows.

It would require multiple references; anything specific you'd be interested in?

Okay, that's interesting reading. And, FWIW, I am not sympathetic with those bozos in the IRS. If a business has a pressing need, it redirects funding from stupid parties, seminars in Hawaii, lavish offices and bonuses and focuses on the crown jewels. For the IRS, that would be information security. But we're talking about the most bloated, corrupt regime in history so....

In a winery, the regular taster died and the director was in urgent need of a replacement.
A drunkard with ragged, dirty look came to apply for the position.
The director of the factory wondered how to send him away.
They tested him.
They gave him a glass with a drink. He tried it and said, "It's red wine, a Muscat, three years old, grown on a north slope, matured in oak barrels".
"That's correct", said the boss.
Another glass.
"It's red wine, cabernet, eight years old, a south-western slope, lightly-charred oak barrels previously used to store Scotch".
"Correct."
A third glass.
''It's champagne, high grade and exclusive'' calmly said the drunk.
The director was astonished.
He winked at his secretary to suggest something.
She brought in a glass of urine.
The alcoholic tried it. "It's a blonde, 26 years old, pregnant in the third month. And if you don't give me the job, I'll name the father!"

I just installed the latest build of Windows 10, and I have to say it's a masterpiece of marketing propaganda. They make such a big deal that this version was created with the feedback of users, but it turns out that it's everything a user would NOT want.
The start menu would be better called the advertising menu because apparently that's its function now, to push apps by making "suggestions."
They give you the ability to turn off "personalized ads" in the new Spartan browser, but they specifically say that turning off personalized ads doesn't stop them from collecting data - it only stops them from using the data for ads.
The search box on the taskbar pops up live tiles even if you don't want it to, showing news and things they want you to buy.
Windows 10 is nothing but a huge invasion of privacy and a marketing device to push crap on you.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

I'm not surprised. I figured Windows 10 and Spartan would just be refreshes of the current products with some new functionality. They're both mature products and MSFT is just looking to keep the money coming in. MSFT new monies are going towards the cloud.
