A little note that I "upgraded" my ASUS Transformer tab-lap-let-top
thing from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 Home. While it took a while to
figure out how to clear out enough space to upgrade, after that, it
went slowly but uneventfully.

A side note that a 32 Gb SSD is really not enough to run Windows, and
that's just pathetic. The "32Gb" of course isn't, really: 8 Gb
recovery partition and 100Mb EFI drive leaves,... 20.9 Gb as Drive C:.
That's Microsoft Math for ya. Of that 21 Gb, there were probably less
than 1 Gb of user files -- a Fox exe and data, a couple of PDFs,
PDFCreator, vRunFox, FireFox and Chrome, left less than 5 Gb free. The
rest was pagefile, hibernation file, old Windows patch files, printer
drivers, ASUS-included glorp, and temporary files. WinDirStat to the
rescue, followed by Disk Cleanup.

Windows 10 runs fine, so far. I run Classic Shell thanks to Ken
McGinnis, and note that Windows Update is missing, since it's going to
run whether you like it or not.

There are "Express Settings" which pretty much explicitly says it is
going to send every keystroke, gesture and noise the microphone picks
up to Microsoft. Yeah, don't accept that. In the follow-on screens, my
choices were;

Off
Off
Off
Off
Off
Off
On for SmartScreen malicious detection
Off
Off
Off
Off
Off
Off
Off

and "Let Me Choose.." for Associated Apps, uncheck, uncheck, uncheck, uncheck.

Looking forward to seeing what Microsoft will update today!
