I've been planning to switch to Windows 10. Isn't it hard to use? All I know are a few terms such as vpn, AV's, and WiFi Connections. Other than that, I really don't understand. What's good about Windows 10?
Well, if you are new for Windows, I can tell you a very simple thing:
Windows has fewer limitations, more customisation and more applications. You may compare it with Android. I mean, Windows and Mac OS X are like Android and iOS (We simply compare OS, not apps). Almost everything you are using not explicitly for Mac would likely find an alternative under Windows.
Unfortunately, of course, you need to treat with viruses, malware, ad-ware, system fixes, all of them. Thank you for Microsoft changing policy of releasing new version, in the future, user may only need to receive new build, containing bug fixes, feature enhancements, and various under-the-hood improvements, rather than dealing with the old troublesome, heavy, less flexible, and sometimes unstable Windows Update, and regular bug fixes every month.
If you have experience on using Windows, here is my preliminary experience:
Windows 10 is truly a brand new version of Windows, fine tuned. It migrates previous controversial Start screen inside new Start menu, creating a new universal, all-in-one-place start menu, for several things probably would do when starting using computer. I can use start menu to quickly access all programs installed, search for several small but useful utilities, control panel items, etc.
With new Task View (borrowed from Mac OS X mission control), I can simply see all apps I am running, either modern apps or traditional Win32 apps (Those modern apps are similar to apps downloaded from Mac App Store, while traditional Win32 apps are similar to apps downloaded outside Mac App Store, in concept level, though). There is one feature I like under Windows, is I can close programs I am running (at least program windows) right from Task View, while Mac OS X mission control cannot do that, even under El Capitan.
System performance has been greatly improved, especially from this most current build 10240. I may even miss startup screen if I am not aware of that because the startup speed is so fast under SSD. Overall system responsiveness has been improved greatly, according to my experience.
Backward compatibility is simply awesome. I have a game released in 1998. This game is surely an ancient game, but I can still run it under the latest 10240 build Windows 10 (64-bit), with some noticeable but tolerable graphical glitches! And some of my other apps released decades ago is still able to run, with little or no issue.
I cannot say this would help you much, although I hope this may give you a quick look at Windows 10, and the future of Windows.
Regards.
