I Have Never Used The Recent Windows Versions Regularly, And Most Of Them Not At All, So, Believe It Or Not - You Are On Your Own On This One.

My Love / Hate Relationship With M$ Is Rapidly Tilting To The Latter, And I Am Not The Only One.
I Read Something Like This Somewhere:
...I Have Given M$ A Lot Of Money Over The Years And Any Time I Need A Little Help From Them They Want To Charge Me Exorbitant Rates For It.
Every Time I Hear About The bill and melinda gates foundation I Want To Puke.
When They Stop Supporting W7 I Am Planning To Switch To Linux...

IMO, this option for Free upgrade to v10 isn't bad... at least it'll increse EOL for 2+ Years in comparation with v8: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/lifecycle
FYI, like you, I'm still using XP & v10 (which works pretty good).

Well, I can undestand MS trying to avoid creating a new WinXp and being more agile but... Maybe they could have begun with no more drivers?

XP's #1.
I Will Not Be Changing Over Before Support Ends.
I Like XP, Never Had Problems With It And I Can't Really Be Bothered To Pay For Upgrading For Practically No Reason.
I've Been Using XP For 12 Years, 6 Of Them On This Very Computer That Still Runs Modern Games Decently.
I've Never Had Much Trouble With MalWare, Even Without Anti-Virus/MalWare Software.
When Support Ends, I Might Consider Getting Anti-Virus And MalWare Programs.
But I Say, Bring It On.
I Don't Have Much Worth Hacking Anyway, So I Say Bring It On.

It's more like telling lies about the shutdown, what happened is that the AIs "optimized" the language to something we humans couldn't comprehend, therefore busting the experiment. Since it was busted, Fb couldn¿t do anything aside from stopping it since the data was now useless

Intelligent Devices Thinking By Themselves Without Any Human Intervention, Whatsoever ? - I Will Wait For Them On A Comfy Chair, Thank You.
I Will Never Be An IT Scientist, But As Far I Am Concerned, Lots Of People Have Seen I, ROBOT ( My Favorite Movie, Ever ) 1 Too Many Times.
This Kind Of Hype Is What HOLLYWOOD Calls A Wet Dream - Lots Of Money Rolling In.

Well, google migth suprise you in a few years

( No Insulting Intentions, Whatsoever )
I Do Not Know What Is Your Experience As An IT Programmer, But, As I See It, The Missing Variables Are Just Too Damn Many.
As I Said, I Will Get Me A Comfy Chair While Waiting For Whatever The Likes Of GOOGLE Shoot Out Of Their Glorious Exhaust Pipelines.
Cheers.

I agree with J., IMO, somethings went wrong... and only they can do is to use this fiasco for the Marketing/Promotional purpose... & They did success with that! :thumbsup:
However, this story will alive forever with Sci-Fi, Star Trek, and etc. Fans. ;D

There You Go.
If You Find The Patience To Read It All, Start By Reading The Comments - All Points Of View Should Be There.
Talking, Again, About Missing Variables, **HONK** Seems To Be The Keyword Here ( Or Lack Thereof ).
Cheers.
