    I run Linux mint 17 at home. I've got 7 on my laptop, and if it is true that those who have 7 or 8 can upgrade free the first year I'll go to 10 once the smoke clears and the bugs are out of it. Linux is the best. Just that there are some programs that are proprietary Windows.

    A good friend of mine here who heads IT for the city for many years has been running a beta version of 10 and said 10 is very promising.

    I come room sites like this to relax and unwind. What I want from an operating system is transparency and not frustration.

    I've recently upgraded my laptop and at first I wasn't a fan of Windows 8 even now I wouldn't say I like it but I'm getting use to using it, I think it's a case of most of us don't like change If you like the menus and the way something works you tend to stick with it.
