Lots of fun for certain of us who like development, meaning have skin the thickness of a rhinoceros. I did catch the Photos issue last time around and the Start menu crashing struck me as sloppy QA but I haven’t seen any of the other issues. For anyone considering joining the Insiders program, you’d better have a dedicated box with good image-level backups to even consider this stuff. It is kinda fun if you have a masochistic bent...

“Whether you want to share a photo, make plans for dinner, or get an answer from a friend or coworker “

Uh, what if instead I want to run a refinery, paper mill, a hospital, a missile factory, a DMV office, an accounting firm, law firm, CAD/CAM design firm, then what?

Oh, yeah. Right. Widows 7 Pro/Enterprise until 2020. But what about after 2020, Microsoft?

I’ll keep my Windows 7 for as long as I can thank you very much.

We fixed an issue resulting in an unexpected extra ~20 sec being added to the phone shutdown process due to a deadlock if you tried to shut down soon after switching from one network to another.

I was texting with my son and the keyboard wouldn’t come up. This used to happen on my Icon. Restarting would always fix it. I decided to restart my 950XL. It took such a long time I was really panicking. It took a lot longer than twenty seconds I can tell you that. Meanwhile I can’t answer my son’s text.

So I need to take the SD card out of my Surface 3 before updating? Okay, fine, no big deal.
