    Agreed, Insider's purpose was to get feedback and design opinions.
    They're more than capable of testing the builds themselves.

    Who said Windows 10 is going to be finished on July 29.
    They said in the forums that Windows 10 is an on going project
    That is why the insider program is going to be on going also.

    They said it would be GA on the 29th, whatever term you want to associate with that is fine and the reality is no version of windows has ever been "done" since the day they started Windows Update.

    Now fellow, lets really start a fight over Windows 10 Finished or not...

    I have been a Windows Beta Tester starting with Pre-Windows 95.

    and Microsoft has NEVER HAD A FINISHED OS. NEVER - NEVER

    There is no such thing as a 'finished' OS - if there was, there would be no updates, ever

    IMO, RTM = 'Finished' enough to sell

    I think its more like ms will release it without any major bugs, would be bad press for them if the pc burst into flames or summoned Satan :biggrin:

    You can count on there being a whole bunch of updates when the public gets their hands on the RTM.

    well there is never lack of that at MDL :D. We now have wheel mouse follows pointer, transparency of notification/action center, cortana without live account, now if they could only group all the appz into a folder on the start menu, I would prefer windows system or windows admin to clutter the start menu more than all these appz but no those two are all neatly in their own folder.

    Regards

    Edit: Why when I disable the search from always cluttering in my task bar I have to scroll through all appz to find it, put it back where it was it was fine there or place a click above power.

    You press winkey and start typing, like you did all the way back in Vista. Why do you need a bar to click?

    Pro tip: then don't disable the Search Icon and voila full touch support! and if you switch into Tablet-mode the search icon will display even if you deactivate it.

    It's a non issue.

    Why do I need it cluttering the task bar and why is the mouse travel so long if it is not? I should say this quietly since I do not want it to disappear but I still enable quick launch on the toolbar and shove it to the right, beside the notification icons, as I am right handed and do not what to pin things or have a search bar on the left where my tasks are open. I am happy you are a keyboard guy however I cut n paste when I can and asked about mouse travel.

    Regards

    Edit: Start typing K ty keyboard it is I guess, and advertising is gone :D no right and paste on the start menu :mad:

    Been nearly a month (or is it exactly a month?) since 10130

    10130 was a poor build. They knew that and had to give the beggars on Twitter a chance to vote on its release and you all got 10130 in its buggy glory.

    Compare 10130 to 10147. Look at the speed difference and all the bugs that were fixed and keep in mind 10147 wasn't meant for the general public. They still have just over a month to fix even more stuff. They made it clear that 10130 was feature complete and from then on out it's bug smashing and tweaking. If you can't see that they have plenty of time to make it stable as hell, then you're just trolling. Just my opinion on that.

    It's tru what people are saying. Nobody has ever released a FINISHED operating system. It can't actually be done when you really think about it.

    But if you'd rather drive yourselves nuts by getting all hissy-pissy over no builds being released to insiders or even leaks, go right ahead. Only hurting yourself lol.
