Early reviews state this may be the new Windows Vista.
We will see I suppose. I normally judge for myself. |

I had an old Gateway computer that came with Windows Millennium Edition and it was just awful. I've heard Vista was pretty awful. |

I have an older desktop I use a lot and when I updated it to Windows 10, it functions like it's in super slow mode a lot of the time, while other times it's fine in short periods.
I assume it doesn't have enough memory to run Windows 10? |

How much RAM do you have? Minimum 4GB should be enough for Windows 64b. Running other apps will cut into that, especially Chrome.

8GB should be considered the current absolute minimum for Windows these days. And RAM is cheap...

I only use my desktop for surfing the web, my stock screener, some basic work stuff and streaming sports. I don’t play any games. |

Chrome is RAM hungry. So are quite a few collaboration tools like WebEx. Of course, MS Office apps like Outlook are resource hungry. I'm getting ready to phase Windows out completely here - I've got my home computing down to where the only devices that need continuous support are the Windows machine and they are simply that much more "hands on" than everything else. |

* You couldn't pay me enough to support end users. I did it for 3 years after college and I'm still surprised to this day I didn't strangle someone or get fired.
* I'm pretty sure it's possible to limit the amount of memory Chrome or pretty much any browser can use with a little tinkering. It might be adding a user flag to the call in properties > Target Ex: C:\Users\nip\AppData\Local\Vivaldi\Application\vivaldi.exe --disk-cache-size-35000000 That's obviously not memory but what it would look like. * I could have sworn I read somewhere that Win 10 would be the last roll out and MS would be updating long time. |
