I really don’t understand any of this.

I’ve used Windows since 3.0.

I’ve used Linux Mint, when I could (I’ve got problems but it’s mainly due to trying to use it for things it apparently was never designed for).

This all sounds like useless claptrap to me. I’m too stupid and old, I guess.

Example: Acrylic material, part of the Fluent Design System, is coming to parts of Windows 10 Fall Creators Update

The version of Win 7 Pro I'm running sounds better and better.

Being able to swipe with the pen will be nice. It’s a rather useless appendage now. I want the pen to work on my phone, too. Why not, the mouse works on my phone.
I’ve also never understood why there’s no dictation for the keyboard. My phone has it and I use it.

I just upgraded to Windows 10 Creator. It bricked a program called Quickverse, which won’t run in. Won’t even run in a Win 7 or XP window.

Can someone explain in plain English what the connection between Ubuntu and Win10 is going to be and how I might benefit from it. I dual boot Ubuntu right now.

OneDrive Files On-Demand, which will let you see all the files in Microsoft’s cloud storage while only downloading those you need offline.

This would he nice since I only have a small hard drive on my bottom-of-the-line Surface.
