Windows 10
Anybody get a message/notification on their windows 7/windows 8 today asking if they wanted to get a free upgrade to a full version of windows 10 when available? Who is on windows 7 and are planning to upgrade? I clicked yes for the upgrade, but still on the fence about it.

If you want to get rid of the Nag icon... look for Update KB3035583 and uninstall it.
Personally I like my Win7 laptop the way it is but wouldn't mind having something else run Win10.

Windows 10 is a mash up of the start menu and win7 desktop with a better browser stock and security out of the box, while still optimized for touch .
I would upgrade as long as you know for sure that your unit has all available drivers from the mfg.
It'll be released 7/29

They will have a Windows 10 Pro version. But the upgrade is for Windows 10 Home (the basic version). Windows 10 is supposedly the "last" windows Microsoft will ever release. Windows 10 Home will install updates automatically (cannot choose to update manually). You also lose Windows Media Center with a Windows 10 upgrade.

you can get rid of the nag quite easily. click the arrow on the task bar, select customize and then select to hide notifications. That worked fine on all 5 of my home machines.
