Hey Ted, You make some interesting points - since, with me - 3D Modeling is definitely an issue. And, if Win10 crapped out either my desktop or laptop in regards to my ability to do 3D CG - that would certainly suck! Will keep this all in mind.
And - Stephen - thanks for your input (including offline input - sorry I didn't reply to that one yet). But, yes - my desktop has the more powerful processor. Although, its probably my laptop that I will experiment with and do the Upgrade before doing it to my desktop. Especially since my desktop also controls my hi-end 3D Printer - and I certainly would NOT want my 3DP FUBARed!

(Unless you choose to go to Linux, as I have.) Microsoft is going to move everything to Win10, and eventually expire and stop supporting Win 7, 8, 8.1. Win10 upgrade is "free" if you don't count your time, bandwidth and frustration at finding where they've hidden everything this time, and they claim they're going to slipstream updates from here, a la OS X, but we'll see how long that promise lasts... For me, it's a matter of keeping up with clients and being able to provide the support they need. As best as I can tell, there aren't any VFP showstoppers in W10 and it's alot more stable since the Oct/Nov updates. I've got a couple of machines here for testing client issues, validating web sites on IE/Edge, and watching Hulu :). No issues for me. Gamers or folks using intense apps like 3-D modeling or CAD might know of some problems, but works okay as a consumer machine. -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/80838f1ca795b14ea1af48659f35166f2a1...@drexch02.corp.globetax.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
