So far, so good.
Nothing untoward, and (although I've not checked by putting the .apk onto my devices yet) Monkey seems to be compiling just fine, without me needing to tweak anything, which is nice.

My main complaint so far, is that YET AGAIN, they've reduced the fucking contrast on everything.
I swear to god, light grey text on a white background with a white border and now even a white titlebar. It's like everyone in the universe is scared of being able to see what the fuck it is that they're trying to do!

The vision in my right eye is no better than it was three years ago, and I resent having to bloody well squint to read things on a screen that's only as far away as my lap!!!

Switching on "High Contrast" should be a LAST RESORT, not your first option!!!

I had to click the thing to get it moving. Or maybe it's just bring a slow download for you? Who knows!!

I'm going to wait a few months before jumping onto Win10, I need a new PC and I might as well install it on a fresh one


Looking at Jay's screenshot - is "My" Computer back!?!? Also cant you change the background colour/wallpaper to make it more readable?

Socoder : So primitive, it even works in a Microsoft browser.

Well, its seems my upgrade is imminent, just checked and the hidden folder "C:\$Windows.~BT" is sitting there with setup files inside... I'm not touching it until it says mind... But I wish it would hurry up, I'm dying to strain my eyes on the font!

We just tested to see how long it would take to get solitaire running on it.

I kid you not, 3 minutes of server communicating later and the target computer could finally play ad-supported solitaire.

Unsure if it's the Win10 upgrade, or the PaintShop Pro upgrade, but something's generating thumbnails for my .psp images! It couldn't do that, a couple of days ago..

Screengrabbing videos of my games has decreased dramatically in framerate.
What used to be a mostly-steady 30fps capture is now down to about 10fps!

It speeds back up again if I run the app in NVidia mode, instead of the Intel chipset.. (A simple right-click of the exe gives this option) and I indeed managed to grab yesterday's Train-ride video with it, but what used to work fairly well, no longer works as well

With these new screensavers, Microsoft, you're really spoiling us!



Oh, no.. Wait.. That's the same selection from FUCKING WINDOWS FUCKING NINETY-FIVE!!

I haven't heard a peep about my upgrade. How exactly is it that we find out that it's 'ready'? an email? a stupid little bubble from the taskbar? something else?

For me, I simply had to left-click that Windows 10 icon in the taskbar. Then the window came up with "Ready to Install!"
If you right-click it, it does something different, because.. ... Microsoft!
