Been using it close on 2.5 years and very few complaints.

I'm a bit agnostic when it comes to Windows X, granted it is a big leap forward from the version 8 flavor of Windows OS, but I loathe the update process and lack of simple straight forward control that was present in pre-8.x versions.
There are advances to be sure, but I'm wondering at what cost. I'm waiting for the creators update to be pushed and will hold further judgment till that takes place.
WHAT REALLY TROUBLES ME... is Apples iOS and how Microsoft like they have become with it. Seems like every time I use streaming media on my iPad Pro or iPhone 7 I have to reboot them to get them to function properly. This is most noted in email where you will not see the content of the message until you reboot. So I find that I'm doing that as many as 5 times a day. Getting old fast there Apple. MS-Windows only forces me to reboot when they slide in an update (but it sure would be nice to know in advance it was happening or prompting that I needed to reboot due to an update 'hint hint ms'!).
Wish both companies would grow up their OS's a bit more and produce something other than an infinite beta product which is what is see on both their parts!

lol ... given your "unProfessional Profile" is soaked in Windows only sauce this must be a sad day in your life?
But guessing one of these (profile OR this post) is the joke, as how could it take a windows jockey this long to try Win10 for the first time?

I didn't "try" it. That implies a desire to use it. It was already on a machine (that belongs to someone else that I don't even know). Being the only computer person anybody seems to know within my sphere of influence, I was asked to resolve an issue on the box.
And here's some info you might find useful for any future interaction you might direct my way - I don't give a flyin rat f*ck about how you view my "unprofessional profile".

Slightly ironic dude we got there. Do not feed the troll. If you want to harm him in other ways, go ahead.

LOL - Too funny
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.

PMSL! "Unprofessional profile" ... were you talking about your own?
"How could it take a windows jockey this long to try Win10 for the first time?" - I'm a "windows jockey" ... I've "looked" at Win10, I've "tried" Win10 and I'm happy to stay well away from it until all of the issues are sorted.
But on a more relevant topic ... why are you so negative? Been here 5 years and you only seem to come out of the cupboard to have a go at other members? To quote you.. lighten up

I like it.
It's a pleasure to use.

I've been clearing out the spare room - trying to make it into a bedroom instead of a storage place - and that means going through the boxes we moved in with, and haven't opened since. Some of it has been quite interesting: three watches I'd forgotten about (including my gold fob watch), two sets of cufflinks I haven't worn for twenty years, load of pictures of Herself as a young lady. Some of it has been hideous, as in "why did I keep an ancient sleeping bag that smells like something died in it?"
Then it turned up: my Student Union card from university. Oh gawd. Me, as an 18 YO zit factory in 1977 ... I look young, innocent, sober. And only the first two were true for any part of my stay at university ...
Worse: Herself has seen it and banned me from binning the thing. Damn. And no, I'm not posting it here for a very good reason: Warning - language probably not SFW[^]

What is even more beautiful than an elderly lady? A still older photograph.

After moving countries few times I learned to shed a lot of crap, old photo's were among the first to go.
Really the only significant item I've kept from the past is myself,
... minus the hair on my head, buggered if I know where that went.

One of the things I've lost over the years is my ability to give a damn. If you find it, no need to return it – keep it and see if it works for you.

You did not want to put that in the same context, right? 
If only you knew what our grunts mean when they talk about sleeping bags or a NATO matress.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"No, from Canada."

That sleeping back held a lot of memories.
And probably a lot of fluids, which may explain the distressing smell.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

I'm certain that there were times when OG was sober, but not by choice. England (and Wales) have (had?) closing times for pubs.
