Well I have to say that Edge is buggy..
Even though I still use it as my default browser, it starts up so quickly!!
But problem I had so far:
- occasional crash (particularly if I try to drag a tab on a new window)
- I have trouble having more than 3 window (see above)
- a few other tab issues
for the record IE11 is still there, I even pinned it on the taskbar, don't feel like using it...

I have a naive statistics app developed in Delphi 7. It does a lot of memory allocations and file readings during the startup. It starts faster on W10+HDD than on W7+SSD.

Glad to hear of the success.
Thanks for the info.

Nothing really. For someone comfortable with the level of intrusion in Win 8, Win 10 won't bring you too much extra joy or sorrow. I personally am fine in Win 7, without the useless store, tiles, metro apps and whatnot from Win 8, but that's just me.
Being a free upgrade, people will migrate without thinking, and us developers will have to satisfy their needs for apps. More work for us! Yupeeeeee!

Yes, that is the most difficult part of the whole thing -- more OSes mean more branching support required.
It's a crazy fragmented world out there. And Microsoft keeps on fragmenting.

I'm still running Windows XP on my PC. I do use newer systems on client computers, but I am reluctant to upgrade at all. Why? First of all, I like Office 2003, especially as I am so comfortable drawing complex diagrams with it and I find getting used to newer Office versions a bit awkward, especially with those infuriating Ribbons of Death. Also, every time I go to PC World the reps put me off buying a PC by trying to convince me to add on so much stuff I don't need, or by trying to flog me a pre-built PC that doesn't ideally meet my specifications. I just keep walking away empty-handed. Bonus: I can watch more Youtube videos than most users of more modern (i.e. more censored) systems. Problem: I can't run much in the way of VS software, but then the free versions were a bit deficient anyway, which has added momentum to my move to Java, though I can't use Netbeans 8. Additional problem: Windows put me off with all that Metro rubbish and its clunky 'touchscreen' icons - I want a PC OS not some hybrid. I will upgrade eventually, but I am reluctant.

I think the information you've provided is great.
That's the trouble with upgrades -- the world says everyone wants them and __must__ have them, but the truth is, if the tools you have are doing the trick, it is ridiculous to upgrade.
One the VSTudio thing, have you tried SharpDev Studio? It is free and super cool alternative to VStudio and supports the .NET frameworks. Check it out at:
http://www.icsharpcode.net/opensource/sd/[^]
It's opensource too so you can even examine the code it was built with. Really cool.

While reading an article last night about fathers and sons, memories came
flooding back to the time I took me son out for his first pint.
Off we went to our local pub only two blocks from the cottage.
I got him a Guinness. He didn't like it------so I drank it.
Then I got him a Kilkenny’s; he didn't like that either------so I drank it.
Finally, I thought he might like some Harp Lager? He didn’t-------I drank it.
I thought maybe he'd like whiskey better than beer so we tried a Jameson’s. Nope!
In desperation, I had him try that rare Redbreast, Ireland's finest. He
wouldn't even smell it.
What could I do but drink it?!
By the time I realized he just didn't like to drink, I was so drunk, I could hardly push his stroller back home.
I'll get my coat. 
Once you lose your pride the rest is easy.
In the end, only three things matter: how much you loved, how gently you lived, and how gracefully you let go of things not meant for you. – Buddha

"Swearing" - To be honest, I do at things occasionally when situations demand but definitely not at work. Even the filthiest mess on the code , bad people behavior in team etc, do test my patience but have not managed to pull the Elephanting wild words out @ work. Off work, yes I do at times.
With remote calls @ work, I have done some real goof ups in the past. like forgetting to mute the call and asking a LOUD CUP OF COFFEE from the wife, making a video call instead of Voice call (With a shabby unshaved beard, & unkempt hairs pointing on all directions). Damns Hangouts  . And Sometimes If I got connectivity issues, I do try over the phone but forget to disconnect the skype call that is also running in parallel. etc.
But I quickly patch it up like, "uhh, folks you still there,Okay, One more thing before we log off" & Shamelessly continue with a call that I clearly said good bye at. That used to be an embarrassing moment, but the intensity of it purely based on what you've spoken/done after thinking you are out of the concall. Usually it's been manageable 
But this one today, is really really special.
I was having an hour long conference call (over Skype) with the team with some the of members newly joined in. After the passed on the message, I said "Okay folks, that's all I got to say , lets continue with the tasks" & I disconnected the call, Removed the headphones". And with my phone, dialed the electrician who installed Interverters/UPS for me at home for a service request. He's been evading the call for so long and it got to a point, not just elephants, it pulled the T-rex and mosasaurs out of my mouth , when he didn't pick up the call. When the wife heard my voice & she asked what happened, I repeated the whole sequence of words with the same intensity. As it was going on, I just got a ping in Skype:
"So we can disconnect the call?" - A polite request.
My goodness, That was a feeling! I had to reply like, "What? The call was still not over??"
I got real furious and I was about to request them to keep up the concalls etiquettes , i.e Even if someone mistakenly left the call unclosed, someone should remove them voluntarily instead of listening to the conversations happening @ home. blah blah.
But just checked I'm really into the call. To my surprise, I'm not.
I carefully replied him back : " Am I really , still, in the call?"
That guy: No, I just asked, if we (just the team there in office) can get back to work".
WTF? Is he in sane? He was trying to be too nice asking my permission before they disperse out of the conference room. He might have really ended up getting my first curse @ Work. sadly 
I just kept cool , and replied. "Sure , why not?"
