    Yes, especially in a corporate setting. Shadows and parlor tricks to make the minions go awwww in the office cubicles.

    There is nothing clean nor professional about the shadows in the Toilet Paper. Hopefully that is adjusted or can be shut off. Over all the system is much better, but man are they catering to the wrong crowd. Give the ability for pretty pretty stuff to be changed or customized, but keep the core clean and professional for the ones that really pay MS's bills.

    Are you running it on a virtual machine? Most people who have that problem run it on VM.

    But I see many changes(in the right direction), and please keep in mind that this is Alpha kind of stage of Windows 10. I don't know or understand why any one would expect drastic changes already. MS itself said that there would be very minimal changes to Win 8.1 as of now, more features are going to be added as time goes by.

    It is also to be noted that Windows 8.1 is not a terrible OS, the only mistake(as far as I'm concerned) MS done was blindly or arrogantly going ahead with the UI changes, which pissed off Enterprise customers(who bring lot of money to the MS). They should have planned a step-by-step changes in the UI. If this start menu(introduced in Win 10 TP) was provided in Win 8/8.1 so that people can accustomed to Metro UI and then if they removed in the next version(which is announced as Windows 10 now), there wouldn't have as much cry as there was, because it would've prepared the end users well.

    I don't know were you got your knowledge of Alpha being compared to Tech preview. With an alpha, half your drivers, software wouldn't work and you'd probably crash every 2 sessions.

    I remember Alpha XP man that was some serious beta testing. Most users got it at beta level, not alpha. :cool:

    Yes, it has improvements but it's still windows 8 with perks

    I can't change mouse cursors, anyone else with this problem?

    Edit: Nvm, a reboot fixed it.
