Windows Insider Program and Windows 10 Technical Preview
Wednesday, October 1, 2014 by Island Dog | Discussion: Personal Computing
Sometime today the Windows Insider Program will launch and people will be able to download the Windows 10 Technical Preview.
Windows Insider Program: http://preview.windows.com/
It should be noted that this is a Technical Preview and should not be installed for use as your main operating system. If you aren't familiar with any of this, I'd advise just waiting until next year when it fully released.

I was certain you had something nice. I just hate to waste a piece of equipment.

Learn to fly. I taught myself how to crash land.

i don't get it. so now you can have a shortcut both as an icon-cum-text entry and/or as a tile on the same menu?
would make a lot more sense with tiles on the left and places on the right.

And she keeps saying to you that it'd be okay if she weren't allergic to mutton. 
As for Win 10, still haven't been able to play with it yet, though I am thinking of pulling out one of my towers to convert alot of videos for Steve, in which I do have a spare drive to mount Win 10 to give it a test run.

Yeah, already have it, but I still need to get out my main rig because there's no editing/converting video on this piddling laptop, nor do I think it capable of running Virtual Box with an OS installed, CPU, RAM and space-wise... and her desktop machine needs work before it can be used.
Besides, I want to run Win 10 directly on hardware to put it through its paces and see what it is capable of, and I'm not going to get the same experience from inside a virtual machine.

I have an MS flight stick I'd send you but shipping from US would probably be more than the thing is worth.
I already have a Saitek X65F system....neat with its static pressure-sensitive stick.....no moving parts to wear out [but pricey]...
Which reminds me....one of the things to check out for 10 ..... will FSX work.....
