With Win 10 out in just a few days time, was wondering if the majority will go for the free upgrade straight away (from win 7, or win 8/8.1) or wait for a few months while any creases are ironed out, and then upgrade? I'm tempted to go straight into it but could be a bit risky...what d'you think?

Worst case I have a micro server to fall back on if everything goes fubarSocialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.
No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.Comment
