    The only good things I can think about Win 10 are:

    1 - It's free for a year
    2. DX12

    The rest can go to hell

    And who cares about you and your opinion? It wasn't you, who started this thread. It was MonarchX and he was more than specific in his question. In other case (if your knowledge level was like intermediate), I would have recommended you to send your feedback in Feedback app, not on MDL forum, but you doesn't seem like a person who will deal with preview os. You tell that VMware does the same that virtual desktops (what a c**p am i reading?!). As a troll you are a not fun, so you just throw all of your ignorance on us all at once. No, Modern UI Apps have been there sinde Windows 8 Developers Preview and has nothing to do with Windows Phone. No, virtual desktops has nothing to do with OS virtualization. Do your homework and don't bother others with your opinion about the things you know nothing about.

    win7 is too clunky for me after using 8.x -> and not referring to the UI. I just get around faster in 8x->

    You wont see me going backwards to 7

    I would have to say that the OP does. Otherwise, He would not have posted a thread asking for opinions.

    Stay on point...give your opinions, and the level of hostility in this thread will not rise to a place where the mods will close and lock the thread.

    personally I think it should be merged with one of the other appropriate threads

    But which one is appropriate? The discussion ones are pretty short-lived and dying as soon as a new build comes out, while the point of this thread is about Windows 10 in general. Maybe the thread could evolve into something like "Windows 10 Pro and Cons"...

    How dare you even suggest this. No one on MDL would do any bitching, moaning, or s**t slinging.

    Each and every thread is the combination of mature adults expressing their views in a most appropriate manner.
    Shame on you EFA11. shame - shame - shame.

    @EFA11 - you are now officially demoted to EFA10 - like in Windows 10.

    Yes, but not Ultra New things. They'll polish the UI more, Improve the Start Menu, Add/Update rest of the icons & buttons etc.
    Remember, the Windows 8 time ? Then they'd changed the look & added other small features later on, in Developer Preview & RTM.

    We'll have a better picture of RTM at BUILD, no new stuff at BUILD means, no new stuff in RTM ; only stability & performance improvements.

    Hold on here, you cannot be demoted, a "down" thing, then raise me, an "up" thing, at the same time - it is just not cricket.

    Anyone having issues with the taskbar/start menu color not changing? I have set to auto and then to other colors, the tiles change colors on the start menu and the bar below the icons on the taskbar change but the bar and start menu itself does not change.

    Edit: I found it. Was in the new settings -> personalization -> color, I had to turn those features on.
