LOL yeah, Insider program started out great, then went to crap when 9879 was announced as the last build for almost 3 months.
Well MS, if you screw Windows 10 up, you know Linux will dominate. We are sick and tired of being lied to. Phone insider? I really want MS to do well, but they are going back acting like spoiled kids. Perhaps it's time to give MS the middle finger?
Also... they offered two rings... fast and slow, for now both was useless and taking age for get a damn new build. Why MS kidding us? For prevent random leaks? Nice decoy...
But Microsoft are sometimes too scared to show off their latest features to Windows so I don't think that will happen soon
Microsoft are lame, sorry but its true, with the UI they are going back, flat shouldn't really mean modern, they better work on the features, even XP had a better interface, they better bring back Aero. as for the preview build upgrade options, I agree, fast and slow rings for nothing, we don't get a new build each week nor each months, this is lame, least they could do is release current or now old builds or at least fixed builds... wth... And yeah, the Build 2014 build looked much better IMO, Too bad, what was once planned as a Windows 8.1 Update is actually now part of Windows 10 and it aint even looking good, uhh ewww..
Blame marketing, they're the ones that screw over engineering. They want to have their "surprises" and "wow moments" for the average joe dumbass.
Wow, strong words, they BETTER bring back Aero, fast and slow rings for nothing, we don't get a new build each week nor each months, this is lame,(depends on where you set int the update ring.) least they could do is release current or now old builds or at least fixed builds... wth... (They only released 2 the others were LEAKEs, so what is the issue...) leaked in not for GA, and 100% not for PR. be happy, enjoy what you have or get...
No it won't, ever. Even if Win 8, 8.1 and Win 10 failed, Linux would still be where it is today, plenty of Windows OS's have 'failed' and Linux never dominated. You forget that 99% of PC users are dumb facebook / email / photos morons, they wouldn't know what Linux was if they studied it for 10 years
While true to a point, Linux dominates servers and supercomputers. Not to mention routers, home appliances, smartphones and a host of other things where you never 'see' the OS. True the Linux desktop PC is a niche, and I am currently waiting to see what happens in light of recent events whether it will gain or lose popularity, *nix is here to stay. And if Windows 10 fails to deliver like it did with Windows 8/8.1, there may be a movement however big or small to *nix. As it stands right now, Windows is going to have to blow my mind to get me to buy 10 for the 2 PCs that I have that run Windows. And it really looks disappointing to me currently. When Windows 7 comes to EOL it is looking like I am going to have another Linux desktop PC at home. Not to mention talking the workplace into switching too!
Either move to Linux or be stuck or an outdated Windows 7. This Windows Insider program is a failure.
