Windows 10. looks good so far.

, I feel the only time somebody should upgrade is a bit of serious problems with the computers performance due to the operating system. Windows Vista was a horrible operating system and buggy and I can understand of grading from that

Yeah there is the thing about necessity granted.
But staying a little ahead of the change that will surly come isn't a bad idea either.
Hell I still got a copy of windows 1.0 and guess what it went to .. a mac. I shit you not.

I still have working copies of vista, and was certified on that os and I can tell you that vista was actually a huge leap forward from xp and was the platform that 7 was launched from.

The problem with vista wasn't vista, it was with the majority of other hard and software companies refusing to move forward in a timely manner with supported drivers for their products. Vista actually added many new troubleshooting and monitoring tools that are common today but were non- existent in previous versions and if you had a professional or enterprise version even had "Dreamscape" desktops. (basically a video or moving image display)

The most import upgrade in new OS'S is usually security . the importance of security can't be stressed enough in the ever growing world of mobile electronic needs..
Or that's at least the bag of goods we've been sold , who knows ,sounds good, till you find out the free version of windows 10 that has everybody connected to everything everywhere at all times is actually Skynet

After reading the post on this thread and the other one in the link shared by philomath i have to say i might have went at this a little backwards. What i mean by that is i upgraded to 10 from 7 first and then went about reading comments and asking for opinions.
With that being said anyone who has read any of my post on my "pc build" thread are aware i ask for advice and truly appreciate all advice other's are kind enough to share with me but regardless i do what i want and then as an afterthought decide if i should have done whatever it was i had done. Be it add hardware,software or a combination of the two.
As for my knowledge of computer hardware/software it would be safe to say i know just enough to screw things up and (knock on wood) lucky enough to be able to fix what i screw up.,(so far).
Back to windows 10,,I like the look/layout of it and as of this post i have only had a few hours to use it and Finger out what i have and how to use it. As of this post i like it and it seems to be working great for me. Not to say when i click [post reply] it all goes black and a puff of smoke comes out of my tower. but for now i like it.
Thank you all for taking the time to read my ramblings and share advice and opinions with me..,,,Have a nice weekend and take care..,,,Rob.

You don't have to keep dropping quarters in the top every hour to use it.

Interesting, I thought there was a $15 charge.

Found it "You can get the Windows 10 DVD Player for free -- under certain circumstances. To do so, you must upgrade to Windows 10 from one of the following previous versions: Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Professional, Windows 7 Ultimate, Windows 8 with Windows Media Center or Windows 8.1 with Windows Media Center.

If you upgrade from an edition of Windows 7 that does not include Media Center or you do a clean install of Windows 10 or buy a PC with Windows 10 preinstalled, you cannot score the DVD Player for free."
