10 Because 8 and 8.1 are just not good enough. Tab switching sucks in games, the windows panel in 8 and 8.1 are just trash. They should not have strayed far from the windows 7 style, they should have just improved upon it. Also windows 10 will feature DX12 when games start utilizing it. 10 is Faster for boot times in most machines. Generally better imo

 

IMO windows 7 >  XP > 10 >Linux> 8.1 > 8 > Mac > anything else > Vista

10, its great no flaws

Not True it does have its flaws. Privacy issues, bugs are still there, games not fully optimized. Plenty of things lets not try to make it sound perfect cause it is far from it

I prefer some parts of both, the original windows 8 has basically the same network settings as I like from windows 7, the newer versions especially ten make it a lot more difficult.

Server 1 (Files and AD): i3 3220, 4gb DDR3, 1TB Western Digital Blue, Overkill motherboard I got for free (better than main computer) changed to xeon, don't remember exactly what but xeon version of the processor  and 8gb ECC Ram   Server 2 (games): 8gb Ram, i5, Geforce 710m

Personally I prefer Win 8/8.1. I find that MSX is really slow to start up and continues to be slow until about 5 - 10 minutes after boot. It's really annoying and Win 7 was faster. That being said, I prefer Win 8(.1) because I find the cross between Win 7 style desktop and metro MSX is clunky and I the separating in Win 8. On top of that, MSX is ugly af imo and I prefer win 7 over win 8(.1) over MSX.

I love the design of Windows 10 compared to 8 and 7, and Windows 10 is great because of its DX12 support, Ect. Windows 8 isn't that great in general, with the whole start menu thing and I find it harder to navigate. I'd say (other than the settings menu) that Widows 10 is more like Windows 7 than 8.

10. I used 8.1 with a tablet and it was garbage, tablet was nearly unusable with Win8.1. Win10 fixed all my issues for my tablet.

 

My only issue with Win10, is that every week or so, a new update ends up changing my Default Apps for certain extensions, like .pdf keep getting reset to Edge browser, instead of Foxit Reader.
