Posted December 26, 2014 Hi! I need a new os for my new pc and since windows 10 will come out later 2015, I cant wait that long. So my plan is to buy win 8 now and then upgrade when win 10 is available and copy win 10 onto an usb and have it as the boot drive so when I will have to re-install windows I will just use the usb key. Is this a good idea or do you suggest doing something else? Thanks Longboarders/ skaters message me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 26, 2014 I would just wait and see how Windows 10 turns out because personally I can't stand Windows 8.

Posted December 26, 2014 Author There are rumors that Windows 10 will be subscription based. Microsoft has an event in january, I expect them to release all consumer-importaint data. But if it is subscription based, I dont really know how to feel about that. I will stick to win 8 if it wont be a cheap upgrade to win 10 Longboarders/ skaters message me!

Posted December 26, 2014 Author Was said to be false. If I'll have to pay another 100€ for win 10 I'll be sticking with win 8 untill win 11 comes Longboarders/ skaters message me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted December 27, 2014 Was said to be false. Thanks for the clarification. That may actually be the subscription system that you mentioned before like what they're doing with Office.
