I got in early in the beta testing, so I've got it for free on all my boxen. I've installed it on at least twenty computers of all ages (post PIII age, Intel & AMD) and it's handled all the hardware. No yellow exclamation marks in device manager. Good for older computers the MFG has no newer drivers for. Snappy on even the least of those computers. Spybot Anti-Beacon https://www.safer-networking.org/spybot-anti-beacon/ Has a finicky boot mechanism. Easily corrupted and difficult to fix. I do a lot of multi-booting- *nix, Use to do whole drive clone with PartedMagic; no joy. Need something designed for W 10. Mini Tool Partition Manager http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html There are horror stories out there, but that's not me. And most of them were early to mid last summer. Things are better now. YMMV. http://www.extremetech.com/computing/215451-windows-10-is-a-better-windows-7-if-you-can-get-the-upgrade-to-work http://www.pcworld.com/article/2990812/windows/12-irritating-windows-10-installation-issues-and-how-to-fix-them.html Al E.
