    Interesting things seen in WU in Enterprise:

    -A 109MB update for Windows Defender
    -The first official update for W10: KB3001512
    -WU is locked down with policy, as if you're in an Enterprise. You get updates automatically, period, as reported previously, but it's just weird to see that outside of a corp environment (edit: but I see from a previous post that gpedit lets you change it--wonder if that sticks).

    I'm downloading both the "consumer" and enterprise ISOs and check the differences later. From what I understand, the Index:1 of the consumer ISO is the "professional edition", but you cannot activate it because we don't know the key. The one they provide seems to be for Index:2. That's why I think I'm gonna go with the enterprise one, because enterprise is basically the pro version plus some extra stuff.

    Anyone tried to install and activate Office 2013 so far?

    Setting titlebar to black still results in black on black text like Windows 8 :/

    Otherwise it seems smooth. Taskbar is a little buggy, when pressing the winkey the non-start menu widget portion of the taskbar appears behind many full screen applications including Firefox.

    One problem is that if I upgrade my 8.1 system (Pro WMC), non-english, to English Tech Preview, I'll apparently keep user files but "lose apps and Windows settings", do they mean I lose apps from Windows store, or other programs such as Office, Firefox, as well? (not likely, but maybe I should just wait - I have backups of course)
