This story needs more posts to help it fit in on an MMO discussion site...
GREAT! Windows is going F2P?!? What now? Are we going to have to go to the Windows cash shop to buy more hard drive space? 4K support is DLC? Is Clippy going to offer us Microsoft Office locked chests we can open for useless word templates and Excel formulas and all we have to do is buy a cash shop key?
-or-
Free? FREE?! Nothing is free. SOMEBODY pays for it, basically this is the rich job makers subsidizing the lazy do-nothing poor. Windows 10 Operating System? more like OOS: Obama's Operating System... Amiright?
-or-
What is this?!? Microsoft is now moving to a F2P system? I worked hard to upgrade from Windows 3.0 all the way to 8.1, through the good times of 95, XP, and 7 to the bad times of 3.0, ME, and Vista! I've put in the effort and work to EARN my Windows 10 and now you're letting in anyone (who already has 7 or 8)?? that's a slap in my low self-esteem... err I mean FACE!
-or-
If the OS was actually good they would be making people pay for it. This is just going to be another carebear, themepark wow clone vanilla operating system.
-or-
I'll never upgrade to 10 now. Paying for an operating system keeps the riff raff out. How am I going to feel special now that just anyone can use Windows 10?
...yea.
'Sandbox MMO' is a PTSD trigger word for anyone who has the experience to know that anonymous players invariably use a 'sandbox' in the same manner a housecat does.
When your head is stuck in the sand, your ass becomes the only recognizable part of you.
No game is more fun than the one you can't play, and no game is more boring than one which you've become familiar.

The install was fast, about 30 min with downloading. All my programs work. WoW running smooth, will do a more extensive test later. Seems fine so far. Did the upgrade over the fresh install and it kept all my stuff, doc, settings, desktop and programs. Will test Landmark later.
EDIT: All my drivers worked as well. My device manager looks clean.
Why are people even discussing Linux? Nobody cares about it. There is no reason whatsoever to use Linux. Nobody uses it to a point where it is insignificant. It's a cheap insecure operating system which no developer wants to support.

I wonder how much some people are being paid to spread falsehood and boldface lies such as this. No one sane and that care about freedom would say that. Especially not developers.

He does have one good point - why has this been derailed to a Linux topic?
I didn't feel like going through 13 pages of opinions and didn't have time anyways. I looked yesterday at the Windows site two days ago and it was not there which led to my question here. Smartass! =P

I would say 'it is an opportunity to educate'. :P
Linux is actually 'cared' by a lot of people. The issue is that you don't generally know that you are using Linux or interacting with a computer that has Linux.
If you have an android device (e.g. Samsung Galaxy S5 / Note 4), then you are using Linux as Android OS uses the Linux kernal.
In the desktop space, yes, Linux isn't all that relevant.
It shows what PvP games are really all about, and no, it's not about more realism and immersion. It's about cowards hiding behind a screen to they can bully other defenseless players without any risk of direct retaliation like there would be if they acted like asshats in "real life". -Jean-Luc_Picard
Life itself is a game. So why shouldn't your game be ruined? - justmemyselfandi

Leaving piracy aside, you always have to pay for the OS. Your point?
They put a stock ticker on the start screen, cool I guess for ppl following stocks. You can change all that of course.
WTF are you ranting about? So you pirate your OS? You have always had to pay for your OS.

It's available as a real upgrade, but don't install it on your main system, or you could lose everything.
you can get the iso too.

crazy cortana
Great to know, thanks.
this is really nice, already had it in the last build, but anyway
you click TAB-WIN or click the button at the taskbar, and you see all your windows, no longer having to search for one
click if you need one
The metro apps run in the desktop now by default. They're no longer full screen, and you can resize them.
