Todays the day - Windows 10


Whats new thats actually interesting?


The start menu is back - WooHoo.  Well sorta woohoo, it needs some serious work to stop it being annoying with all the metro/modern apps on it and the all apps thing being very very messy, but other than that its all good
Cortana like google now only not quite there yet. Watch this space
Edge a new browser - FINALLY. Work to be done but its a start and now maybe we can convince our clients to ditch IE6/8
Disk Performance counters in task manager. Hoo-Flippin-Ray! Been wanting this for a very very long time.
Copy and Paste in command prompt.Which is great but you should be using powershell!
Multiple Desktops/Workspaces. I am actually a fan of this thanks to Linux but I doubt it will get heavily used.
Windows Hello - Not at all sure about this one.
Its free - Not interesting if you work in IT


BTW it pink screened my ESX 5.1 hosted on a Dell 2950 when I started deploying through SCCM 2012. Had to upgrade to 6. It was about time I did that anyway
