This is really a continuation of a blog I posted in December 2013, (no doubt still available on Amazon,everything else seems to be these days)
In it we discussed the demise of Windows XP
various options were put forward by bloggers, I of course swung straight into action
and thought about it for 4 years
ok so I like to take my time, there are some things that shouldn't be rushed
So I've missed the excitement of Windows 7, 8, 8.1 & now we have 10, do tell us what you think of 10
not that it'll make a jot of difference to me as I've gone alternative
In the past year we've heard from Pres Trump on how he intends to put America first, great if you happen to be an American but most of us aren't, American corporations have taken a similar stance, just this week an American site I use has advised me the cost of an ad this year is to go up 60%
that's outrageous but totally expected, the plan seems to me to be, buy up the opposition, achieve world domination, then hit em with the cost
I'll have to pay the 60% extra because they now own all the sites in that field & I have no choice but to use them
So how are you Windows 10 (or spyware as it's known on the net) users feeling
confident the cost you've already paid is all you're going to pay, or are you seeing the rumours of it becoming a subscription based product and becoming concerned, or maybe you'll only have to pay extra if you want it do something, who knows.
For me the solution was easier than I'd anticipated, that dread of stepping into the unknown with a new operating system, but what's to think about, it's free, easyish to install, you can have dual boot & keep Windows just in case you don't like it, it's secure so you don't have spend extra each year on security products you only need because Windows has more holes than my socks, used by just about every major server in the world and is as easy to use as any Windows product, so what is to think about
Of course for every rule there's an exception, whilst extracting the most bucks from everyone on the planet seems to be the norm for most American Corps, there are exceptions, CS being the only one I can think of at the moment
