You should only need the boot disk for for image restores: when you don't want to boot the OS but overwrite it!

Yes I realize that now - did you persevere and stick with 10 in the end ?

Yeah - mostly because I have to support a couple of friends (and their mother) who are using it. Still ugly, still annoying. But it is getting better, very, very slowly. If you think of it as "Win 8 SP2" then you're not far off.
Edge is total cr@p though...best used to download something that works!
The Mail app is useless: Metro rubbish that doesn't play nicely with anything. Live Mail (free as part of the Windows Essentials package) is basically Outlook, so that works nicely.

Iv'e been reading a lot of negative stuff about it ever since I started on this journey everything from it calling home all the time and collecting your data and passwords - don't really know what to believe - the worse thing for me so far is them totally f???ing up solitaire - I'll run with it for a while and see how it goes - if you have any tips on improving it ( apart from binning it ) please let me know.

...that the most active forum on Sundays is 'Spam and Abuse Watch'?
Isn't that an abusement of CP?
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Most human CPians have Sunday off, and spend it doing things other than accessing CP (astounding as that may seem ). The spammers, being bots, never rest!
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

No, it says something about Catholics.
They get home from having confessed (and been forgiven for) the sins of the previous week, and they're raring to go to start another week of sinning.

Didn't know the Pope was in charge of the Spam and Abuse watch

Is that what Sean is called nowadays?

Hm, I think Sean is just Chris's messenger on Spam n' abuse.

Like the pope...

OK, that got a LOL out of me.

I just realized that one of my Windows 7 machines not infected with the Windows 10 virus...
As now, I can't imagine why...Can't see the difference between this and the others...
A true miracle...

Probably you unplugged the broadband connection...
Bear in mind that the "Free ungrade" period ends in July.

How much do you want to bet against forced updates being among the first?

I don't see that as qualifying him for troll treatment, largely because I agree with his comment about the guy's name; it looks like the kind of name that would be adopted by a mindless "I' wannabe the next on-line millionaire" spammer -- and we don't want them in CP, for sure, so I'm all in favour of scaring them off.
MM uses bad language quite a lot, to express strong opinions, but (to my knowledge) no-one has ever accused him of being a troll.
