used to be able to do without thinking I have to research... it's
maddening... and is increasingly troublesome. for instance,for some

anyway, I was happy to read Mark's post that after you have to pay for

There's also another issue, I understand that the 8bit subsystem finally
goes entirely away with Win10. Any DOS program, that still works with
Win8 will require a DOS emulator or setting up a virtual machine to run
an earlier version of Windows. I know you like Kedit. If you're using
the dos version it's no longer supported in Win10.
The 16bit subsystem may also be gone, but I don't know. I just read up
on what Win10 did for and against me and decided that the only machine
I'd update would be the one running Vista.

I'm really not sure what the bruahua is about. I've been using Win 10
for six months or so with fewer irritations than I've had with any
other OS.

It will, at some point, become a bit more intrusive.
