Yup. It's true Sam. Bill created Win10 personalized just for you!

I think the way they designed Win10 was the found a bunch of WEBTV users
and had each one tell the way he'd like his OS to work. Done.
Rolf, is just pissed because win10 didn't come preloaded with a deep red

Fabian_Russell, The Start Menu was born out of research into how to teach monkey's to communicate with us. As I said at the start of this thread, I never see the Start Menu, nor Start Screen. Instead, I created a new toolbar on the TaskBar and with the apps I want, in the order I want them. To order them: "unLock" the TaskBar, drap the apps around, then lock the TaskBar. Only the top app's icon is seen on the TaskBar, screenshot: "Jeff-Relf.Me/MyDesktop.PNG". The other apps are in the ToolBar's drop_down menu. Note: I don't use the Desktop, it's blank. Start Killer (StartKiller.COM) removes Win10's Start Button.

It's not as laborious as everyone seems to assume. I found it quite easy, and no, I didn't choose to use Cortana either. Talking to myself is bad enough. The transferred data is as generic as what Android and Apple already get; statistics on what search terms you use, what kinds of touch gestures you use, stuff like that. Not passwords, not names or bank account numbers. There is probably an Internet Rule about there being a Conspiracy Theory for any topic. > >> They ain't fooling around this time.

There are many sites with articles on what to disable and why you might want to. > Windows 10 by default even makes your machine a source for the Internet > to download Windows 10; hope you aren't charged by the byte for access. Only on your local network (your side of the modem)- one computer DL's the updates and then shares with others on that network. The updates are quite quick so far. Also, boot time has been drastically improved. On my year-old touchscreen laptop, from pressing the power button to the login screen takes twelve seconds. From there to the desktop takes seven seconds. Personally I found the old version of the Start Menu fairly useful, and the new version equally so, but then I never really liked having to flip through my C: drive to find stuff. YMMV. Mark L.

Microsoft is moving toward a software-as-a-service business model, and Windows 10 is merely a transition. Soon there will no more Windows releases. All software will be on Microsoft servers and the user's machine will be only a "dumb" terminal. Of course, a dumb terminal does not store data locally. All associated data will also be on Microsoft's "cloud." Everything. No choice. So, for a subscription fee ($$$) that guarantees Microsoft income in perpetuity, the user will get to had over mostly everything. Most users, being veritable retards, won't know enough about what's actually happening to object. In fact, all software companies are moving to subscription-based SaaS.

Software lasts forever. Software companies do not. The only way to guarantee a revenue stream is to use a subscription service. Otherwise, clients are liable to buy your package once and then use it for 20 years. Photoshop has already gone that route. No more releases to run on individual owned and controlled workstations. Now, the user must pay a subscription fee and thus be forever locked in (owned) by a particular vendor. Stick to cartoons, Sammy. They are designed for your mentality.

That's so funny, I can't think of much application software from twenty years ago still having anything to run on. There are exceptions--some FORTRAN programs I wrote to do data analysis in the 1990s still compiles and runs, but the world has moved on. I must admit I'm still running a calendar program developed at MIT since before 1991. -- sci.physics is an unmoderated newsgroup dedicated to the discussion of physics, news from the physics community, and physics-related social issues.

There's plenty of that still around and also lots of folks/companies still running Windows 95. Furthermore, Microsoft goes to great lengths to maintain compatibility with older software across its entire line of NT-based OS's. You'd know this stuff but you only use computers to give the appearance of being a digital person. That's why you use Chromebook and Apple exclusively.
