DESKTOP USERS ENTER!! Experience when using Win10 TP ini desktop?

[frenzyvanrafi]

I'll planning to installing Win10 TP, I'm quietly doubt since beta OS has much bug.

What's your experience when you using Win10 TP? Are you discover any bugs? Or anyone feels more snappy performance?

Now answer your question so I can planning very careful to install Win10

Thanks....

It's nowhere near the final product. It is not a beta.

If anything, I'd call it an alpha. It isn't slow, but it just has obvious rough edges and some small but glaring bugs that would definitely need to be squashed eventually.
Its definitely not fully baked and you will know that. But it works OK as I mess with it full time.

It was a little buggy and sluggish until I downloaded the day 1 updates, and most of that was because my video driver wasn't installed. After the first reboot, I haven't noticed any real bugs. No driver issues, no program/app issues so far.

I installed via VHD and I am using hardware that is extremely outdated (Built 12 years ago, Core 2 6600 2.4Ghz) with no issues.

The thing I've discovered so far is the browser IE has trouble remembering the pages you were on. For example, if the story or article advances a page or two and you click the back arrow, the page won't be there. Now, this is just one website I found this to be true on and may not carry beyond this one. But its happening. Beyond that, its been a beautiful ride so far. I have this weekend to totally dig in, install apps on it etc but so far, I have no major complaints. I love this direction. IE btw, is blazing fast on the desktop.

Its fine already as good as 7 or 8.1... very few bugs that would bug the average user. If they sold THIS I would buy it over 7. Thats how polished this build is even in "alpha" form...I installed in VHD so if needed can always reboot into 7.

Running in VHD the browser has a bit of lag but no biggie.Other than that just minor bugs.

It will be faster already notice how fast it boots from dual boot menu versus 7.

I woul not fully rely on it though...so VHD or VM are best solutions unless you have a spare PC laying around.

Your experience is good but your recommendation is not.

The most important part of this operating system does not exist yet: optimized drivers from the various hardware manufacturers and optimized software from software manufacturers. The reason it appears "fast" is because of it is in it's simplest and smallest usable form.

The time frame is approximately a year from release, maybe slightly less which follow the Microsoft standard of approximately three years between operating system releases.
