THe biggest problem isn't the initial install, but rather the fact that it gets so many updates that often times they don't agree with each other.

Just wondering if the Windows 10 test builds are stable enough to use as the main OS on my system.

Well, pretty much if it doesn't break steam, it's stable enough for me.

what about updates that will prevent you from logging in and have to revert to a system image?

would that bother you or not?

It's coming out in about a month, I'd just wait rather than having to reinstall again later.

Please spend as much time writing your question, as you want me to spend responding to it.  Take some time, and explain your issue, please!

I'm going to install it on a separate partition, to see how stable it is, then I'll decide.
