I've been following this thread with interest, and I'm wondering why no one
has mentioned Cortana. I was looking forward to that particular feature. Is
there a problem with it?

I agree with statements that if you are running 8/8.1, there are fewer
reasons not to upgrade. The Windows 10 core is based on Windows 8 so
Windows 10 is essentially an updated version of Windows 8. Not taking into
account the privacy concerns, it basically just adds features to what you
already have including a Start menu. One of the things which made 8 less
popular was the lack of a Start menu. Upgrading from 8 to 10 is probably
less of a transition than upgrading from 7 to 10.

Well, you have a year from the time it came out to do it. So still have
plenty of time. That is to get it free.
Now I personally think if you are running W8 version then it is a no
brainer to update.
Now if you are running W7 I would say it is a choice but like I say
there is no big hurry as of now.
I also think if you want to go ahead and play around with it is to do a
dual boot and have both W7 and W10 your PC.
I would not dual boot with W8 I would just upgrade to w10 myself! JMT!

Hi, everyone,
Iâ?Tve heard a lot of good things about windows ten, but Iâ?Tve also
heard that the accessibility leaves a lot to be desired. What is
everyoneâ?Ts opinions, should I upgrade now, or wait until later. And
if I do upgrade now, are there things I need to know right away to begin

using windows ten?

If I do wait until later, might anyone have a suggestion as to how long
to wait.
Or am I being too cautious about this whole thing? Thank you for all
responses. I really appreciate it very much.
Jamie
