> I tried 10 for five minutes then went back to 7. I guess it's an okay OS, but I have no reason to upgrade for the moment, and that whole "you can't block drivers / updates" thing really bothers me for the reasons you mentioned. (I did get the digital upgrade license thingy though.)

Well, apparently it's like this: 10 is the last Windows. Windows will be a 'service'. And whatever that might entail, though basically that's because of the mobile market, and the ability to real-time update the tiles in the start menu, etc.
None of which I want. The update thing I'm fine with - as long as it doesn't screw things - which apparently it has. I'm going to set up dual drives, 7 and 10, so I can hop from one to the other - mostly on 7, but on occasion on 10 when I want to fuck with something. I can do a transfer settings any time.
But, yeah, apparently downloading the 10 update gets you in, and you can sit on it forever - which I didn't know till last night, so I would do that with all my machines even if I had no back-up drives.
After an hour or so, there was this notification that popped up asking how I liked 10. I sai, "I want the interfaces of 7 and IE11, but with the security features, etc, of 10 and Edge. Get with it, yo."
Scifi frauds. SF illuminates.
