    I saw a bit of discussion in the OS topic about Windows 10.

    Who has it? Do you like it / prefer it over Win8/Win7?

    Honestly, it's got to be better than 8.

    As for what's expected, has anyone got any screenshots?

    I can probably take some screenshots from work tomorrow and post them in here. I never owned a Windows 8 computer, but my brother does, and I've played with it from time to time. I think Windows 10 is a welcome upgrade.

    I like the new start menu, much better than than "start screen."

    Can't say I'm going to switch from Mac anytime soon though. :P

    Interesting. I like the fact they're still using tiles but have brought it down a notch to fit in with that Windows users were more used to.

    I do like the look of it, and I'm sure I'll get it on my Windows 8 device, but I shall regret leaving 8 - I'm one of the minority that does like it :r How is Project Spartan? It's meant to be good.

    What is Project Spartan?
    Microsoft's 'new' IE version. From what I've heard, it's meant to be really good. They wanted a name change to get rid of some of the hate :r

    Ahh! I have heard that they're bringing something new out, to replace IE, but I didn't know it was called that.

    It's about time they did something with IE. There was no reason for it to be the ugly stepchild of the browser family when Microsoft can do and has done so much else.

    I can take more screenshots in a few weeks when I'm back at work, but I did screenshot Project Spartan ("Edge" is the official name, I think). This is the Project Spartan screenshot.

    I think you can still access the tile/metro view somehow, but it's not so easy.

    'Edge' doesn't look bad, but looks are only part of it.

    Let's see how many issues it creates for developers. :P

    I find the new look Microsoft is using is a little irritating - something about the icons I think.
