I’m currently on build 10162 of the Win10 preview on my desktop. I’ve been using it constantly in a virtual machine since the first build but I’ve been using it sparingly on real hardware because it wasn’t stable enough for me. That now seems to have changed. I’ll be using Win10 as my main desktop so that I can learn what there is to learn about it.
One thing I can tell you here and now is that if you’re a tweaker who values your privacy you’ll have some work to do setting up Win10. The default is basically to share all you’ve got with everything and everyone. It even wants to share your wifi passwords with your contacts.
Although I did a Win10 clean install on this computer a few weeks ago I put my Windows 8.1 image back on because Win10 was so buggy. This time I did an upgrade (extract iso image and click setup.exe). The only problem I’m having at the moment is bridged networking in VMware Player (Win10 host) (I do the majority of my internet activities in one of my Linux VM’s).

Anywho, Microsoft has put out a lot of Win10 info this week. Here are the links:
