[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 72227, post: 890395"] It's quite interesting. W10 is probably the best version that MS has made IMHO, but it seems like they cannot figure out this major update cycle. I honestly don't know for sure why this has pretty much become the main theme with every major release, but I am starting to get the feeling that the "Windows" we know is getting long in the tooth. What I mean is, even with all of the changes they have made under the hood, Windows still holds on to very legacy tech. It's mostly for compatibility reasons, but it seems like it's finally getting to the point where it's coming back to haunt them. Getting rid of their QA team isn't helping things either. Linux by comparison has no where near overhead that Windows does, nor the years upon years, of holding on to this or that just to keep holding on to something that very few people/businesses use. I mean for goodness sake, WHY is internet explorer, old edge and new edge a thing. It's sad in a way, it really is. There is absolutely no reason why Internet explorer is still installed for home users. I understand that some business need the old internet explorer, but at some point you have to move on. Personally I feel like MS enables the stupidity that we see when it comes to businesses and governments using legacy stuff. I get it that it costs money to upgrade and re-develop in-house solutions, but that's the cost of using technology. As long as MS continues to allow this, the more people go, meh, I don't need to spend money on IT, this still works. Personally I think it's time for MS to throw out Windows and start over from scratch. Will there be complaining, yes, however things will move forward and eventually all of that complaining will be forgotten. MS also needs to rip out technology they are no longer supporting. If they aren't developing this or that anymore, it should be removed. Doesn't matter if 5 people want to use it. Linux itself still has issues at times, but I agree, no where near the problems that MS is having with W10. It's sad that is has comes to this. Major updates should be exciting, oooh look at this new feature, or that. Instead it's like, please, pretty please don't destroy my system. [/QUOTE]
