I did order a Dell with 10 home on it. After sending a few hours trying to provide all the personal info required to boot the system up I gave up. Never did get it to load win10. I sent it back. Someone told me that the pro edition didn’t require all that.

I just want to turn the damn thing on and use it.

:: I just want to turn the damn thing on and use it. ::

Just like my Packard-Bell 100 out in the garage. It came with CompuServe preloaded and 10 free AOL disks. I gave them away as Christmas presents to...uh...”friends”.

Had to buy a USRobotics 28.8K modem (out in garage, too) to connect with Core.com services; $29.95/mo.

All that was ordered from Tigerdirect warehouse back when they had a mail-order catalogue-azine. I still do business with them today!

To make this slide even worse...do you remember when no one wanted to load AOL because of spyware issues and privacy concerns? Yeah...good times...mmmm.
