You are nowhere near as fed up with Win10 stories as you will be in a week or so sit down and get reading. So far the biggest new issue has been those who have over 512 apps in their Start menu, not inconceivable but certainly not common. Over at The Register a story has been put up covering Win10 by a person who admits to having 4,000 open browser tabs and sending the machine into hibernation in that state. Their experiences show that Win10 doesn't care and even likes this sort of abuse as long as it is on an SSD. That is not to say all is good, for there is still the technicolour yawn which is the new Start menu and the disturbing tendency for the OS to call on mom more often than Norman Bates. Read the full article to see the good, bad and bothersome.

Only to have it re-enable on
Only to have it re-enable on reinstall after one of those Forced Updates decides to turn things back on again. Let’s try to imagine an eternal game of whack-A-mole going on complements of those forced updates, and trying to keep all the spyware and AD pushing pounded down, all without paying the piper(M$). Things(Options to turn off) as they are now will not be things as they are forever once one of those forced updates is allowed turn things back on, via permissions granted by accepting the windows 10 EULA slippery slope to the eternal abyss! Enjoy your OSAAW(Operating System As Ad Ware) and the need to keep repaying in perpetuity. The spying and adware crap will come back, AD INFINITUM!
