I like my WIN7 Prof and new laptop. It should last at least as long as the newest gem in the MicrostuffIT product line.

Dayglored, Shadow Ace gave me a heads up on this. . . this needs a ping to your Ping list ASAP. Microsoft’s Corporate Vice President Joe Belfiore admitted that users cannot disable the tracking installed on Windows 10, even if they turn off all the user options for such tracking. “core data collection simply cannot be stopped. . .” Translation: you will be watched. OOPS! I wonder if one can just turn off WIFI, disconnect Ethernet, Bluetooth, etc., do all that, will MS Windows 10 just refuse to operate??? LOL!

I guess I should go to Linux mint or Ubuntu. The only thing I really use windoze for is to run Sony Vegas for video editing and watching DVDs.

Winston Smith please phone home. Or better yet, stay where you are cause MS knows where you are and what you are doing.

They’re are making it hard to embrace 10, even though it’s possibly their best os yet. So much bad pr as far as the eye can see. Their dumb moves are similar to mistakes made with Xbox 1 rollout, which is falling further behind the ps4 by the month.

Hey, me too. Good software package.
I am running an older version and so I am sticking with XP for now.

I blocked a bunch of stuff at the Netgear Router. I cannoty put it past Microsoft to use dynamic updating of its call home list.

I liked HAL! I liked HAL too. . . very sympathetic as he was put down. But HAL was totally amoral.

I’ve learned to really like Vegas editor. It beats Pinnacle. It can handle 4k raw video extremely well.

I LITTERALLY just downloaded it an hour ago. I have a legacy IMB Thinkpad that I wanted to use, and thought maybe Linux was the way to go. I’ve been learning Linux on a Raspberry Pi. It’s been fun.
I get why the Linux community likes it better. Windows, in a very real sense, keeps you stupid about how your computer works. Many, many people don’t care how it works. I get that.
However, once you know, wow is Linux easier to use and maintain.

Microsoft Admits Windows 10 Automatic Spying Cannot Be Stopped Sure it can. Go back to XP or upgrade to Linux.
