Windows 10 Preview

I've just upgraded to the Windows 10 preview and I have to say  that I like it a lot. It's very clean and very similar to Windows 7 - the new start menu is actually really nice and functional too.

The new Cortana 'siri-like' search feature and the new spartan browser is not live yet but have to say, very impressed!

Here is a screenshot.

I'm not interested in getting the early access version because it's going to be a huge headache in terms of compatibility with half of the programs I use. I am impressed though and will probably upgrade once it's universally compatible.

Will it work on my ZX Spectrum?

Not sure MS are that current sorry - linux probably would though 

Yes, that looks much neater!

How did you get the Beta Rhys? Like Red, I won't go for it right now for the same reasons but I'm curious nevertheless.

Here we go arkay - so far, not so much as bug...though FIFA 15 can lag occasionally.

Well Red won't be using it until that issue is resolved then

Fifa 15 is for losers. Fifa 14 is where it's at.

Plus, what kind of idiot plays fifa on a PC?

I'm sure Rhys just said he has played FIFA on a PC...

I don't think I can live another day with Windows 8.1. Had it since Christmas and it is just horrid.

8.1 is definitely geared towards tablets and not laptops / desktops.

Actually Red, is FIFA 14 better than 15 or are you just saying that because you don't actually own the latter?

I feel I should move on from FIFA 12 sometime in my lifetime...

Have you tried books?

Exactly my point...

And the latter, but I tend to like to run on a biannual cycle - they don't change enough really to justify buying it all over again every year. I had 13, I got 14 free with my xbox so it'll be next years version I start to look at again.

And such beautiful, beautiful irony that you write that on the Internet Cyncoed...
