Microsoft’s upcoming Windows 10 operating system promises a number of interesting features, including a revamped Start menu with live tiles, the ability to create virtual desktops and the ability to run any app in its own window.

I think I'm just going to wait instead of downloading this. I'll just watch YouTube videos of others testing it out and seeing what features I can expect when I upgrade my PC to Windows 10 in the future.
I'm sure there will be problems with it but that's the case with most software so I'll be keeping an open mind.
