I did it. It's fast. Edge is good too but a little minimal. No issues w the upgrade. It setup all my hardware except for my razor ouroboros. Had to reinstall that.

It defaults to invade all your privacy so do the custom install.

With the insider previews I know Doug has been using it for a good amount of time and I started using it a few months ago. I like it. It has the feel of 7 in layout with a few ideas thrown in from 8, but had just a few issues related to the laptop because of manufacture software being weird.

I have not had any issues with the 3d printing using cura.

I'm looking for someone to comment on joystick support before I switch entirely myself, but I like everything else I've heard about it so far.

If you can run Win8.1, you can probably run 10.
I say that because there are quite a few Core I5's that can;t run 8.1 ore Win10 (like my Bamboo). 


As for upgrades,
I did my desktop onto the beta one version too soon and had to go back to Win7, the next beta fixed the problem I had. My tablet liked it, but then it failed and I had to return it, and the company was not nice about it, so I left 8.1 on the new one for the time being. My other laptop, as Rob said has been on it for a while.

Works great.
If you can use it, I would recommend it.

Do you have an Nvidia display driver?  I saw something about this the other day.

disabling DPTF in the bios fixed it.  I expect I'll get worse battery life, we'll see.

For those following Windows 10 upgrade events, I believe I can confirm that the "bittorrent-like" p2p feature Win10 uses to distribute updates to other machines within a LAN apparently is bittorrent.
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/07/31/windows_10_torrent_updates/

I recently observed the bittorent filters used on the public WasabiNet hotspots trigger on a user who was installing the Win10 upgrade (and who swears to not having any torrent clients installed).  These filters search for protocol signatures, raising flags only when the literal string "BitTorrent protocol" is found.

I have a issue just recently now with my desktop. i7 4770k, gigabyte ud4h, 8gb RAM, 2) GTX 660 3gb in SLI 

Can't right click on task manager items and gives a critical error when clicking on start menu. 

"Critical Error:  Your start menu isn't working.  We'll try to fix it the next time you sign in."

I'm seeing same issues from others but not a solution or ideas for fix that works.

Installed W10 on a Q6600 / Asus P5EVM HDMI. Graphics are nVidia 220 GT.
No problems with Arduino 1.6.4 or Solidworks '14. I am impressed with how snappy the feel of the OS is.

Fresh installs tend to do that, regardless. I recall hearing similar happy noises from a beta tester calling in to Tech TV, back in the day. Praising Windows ME. :)

The old TechTV before it became G4. Then I could not watch it anymore afterwords because of TV package.

I could. Did for a brief time. You didn't miss anything; they wrecked the whole channel. "Attack of the Show"? That show name didn't even make any sense.

I stopped watching soon after the G4/TechTV "partnership". It went downhill from there pretty quickly.

The upgrade to windows 10 went very well for me but now firefox + flash + and windows 10 has an issue and is very frustrating.
