Ask HN: Is it safe to update to Windows 10 yet?

5 pointsgloves3 comments

I've been running Windows 8.1 on my laptop for a while now. I really dislike Windows 8, and from what I have seen of 10 it does appear to be an improvement.

I just want to know whether the initial day 1 bugs have been ironed out enough that Windows 10 is worth installing now?

(Cue the Linux is better comments)

Even that I enjoy using Linux for my day-to-day computing. I have to have a dual boot set-up for school projects.

Windows 10 is perhaps the best Windows I have used yet (since 95). I have an occasional bug (Shutdown doesn't work, mouse-pad hangs,.. nothing a restart or a driver update won't fix).

PS: Besides VisualStudio and Chrome, I hardly use it for anything else.

I wonder the same thing, but I'm on Windows 7 (which I really like).

I'm mostly concerned about Virtual Box still working correctly, since I use virtual machines all day, every day, for school/grad work and hobbies.

In your case it sounds like 'ain't broke, don't fix!'
