I quite like windows 10, I decided to go for it while it was free, its been ok and no problems with updates either.
Is it any better than 7 though? This is the problem I have found over the years. Each successive version has required a faster computer, more memory, and has taken up more and more space on the hard drive. And for what? I remember Windows 3.1. One of its biggest problems was that file names could only be a certain length, 7 characters if I remember right. That problem was corrected with either Windows 95 or 98, I can't remember which.
It has seemed like a "dog chasing its tail" syndrome. Each new edition has required a better computer, or it wouldn't run. My old Windows 3.1 computer was perfectly usable in its time, and not really much slower than my current laptop, which is infinitely more powerful. I have often wondered how much better each "new, improved" version of Windows really was. My Win 7 computers are a little more stable than my Win XP one, but then my Win XP ones weren't bad, and I don't remember any really significant problems with my Win 3.1 computer either. Apart from those file names!
