In 1995 people queued up to BUY Windows 95. 20 years later, with Vista 10, people reject Windows even when it’s a gratis ‘upgrade’ (no buying necessary for existing Windows users), so Microsoft FORCE-FEEDS it, as we have shown here in numerous past articles, e.g. [1, 2, 3].

“Phone-support reps from Dell and HP told us they discourage users from upgrading to Windows 10.”
      --Laptop MagAccording to this new (and apparently exclusive) report, "Microsoft may be gung-ho about upgrading your PC to Windows 10, but some of the company's partners aren't quite as enthusiastic about the new OS, at least if you ask their tech-support reps. While going undercover for our annual Tech Support Showdown — in which we test each laptop vendor's phone, social and Web support — we spoke with several agents who either actively discouraged us from upgrading to Windows 10 or failed to understand core features of the new OS.

"Phone-support reps from Dell and HP told us they discourage users from upgrading to Windows 10. An HP rep even tried to help us roll back to Windows 8.1 during one of our support calls. A Lenovo rep had nothing negative to say about Windows 10, but was confused about how Cortana works."

The word is already spreading and one news site says that "Laptop Mag has reported that tech-support reps are telling their clients to avoid Windows 10, or uninstall the operating system."

Adrian Kingsley-Hughes, at times a Microsoft apologist, is upset about privacy violations in Vista 10. "Microsoft is collecting telemetry from PCs running Windows," he explained, "but what I'm not OK with is the fact that there's no off switch. In fact, I can't understand why Microsoft wants to get into a privacy brawl with Windows 10 users at such a critical time."

Well, Microsoft is trying to turn users of Windows into products, to be sold in bulk perhaps (their data). 'Free' Windows will basically be like a 'free' Facebook account. Now is a great time to say goodbye to Microsoft and Windows (before the force-feeding becomes way over the top). ⬆

"Gates had never been involved in any of the architectural design of Windows, nor had he ever been personally involved in writing such large amounts of code. Now, very late in the game, he was throwing out knee-jerk requests based on the competition. And he seemed totally oblivious to the fact that every such feature change radically screwed up Windows's stability, testing, and ship date."
