I read that there will be a large update then and some computer experts are recommending holding off until the major update is done. In the meantime I have to put up with the VERY ANNOYING Win 10 notification popup screen. I wish I could disable it.
I agree with disableing the popup, but at least its free. I'm willing to wait to download it as well. I just wanted to get it while it was free. I work with computers and know microsofts history so I'm always careful. I think they were offering this as free as a way to make up for 8,. I hadn't heard about the shell though. I have one with 7 and 1 with 8.1 and hate the way 8 is, can't find anything. Which is my only issue with it
