    I can now stop using this Acer PC. I bought it new a year or two ago and it's perfectly usable, but never been exactly quick. My regular W7 Acer is way quicker. I don't suppose the 4 gig of RAM is helping here. Think I'll probably flog it.

    Funny thing is, Belarc Advisor tells me I'm using Windows 8.1, even though I know I'm now on Windows 10. Weird!

    Seeing as today is the last chance for the freebie, it's probably giving you a final dose of W10 stuff and will sneakily 'upgrade' you later.



    I just downloaded a 'live' boot CD of ReactOS to try. Sounds interesting. Could be just the thing for an old PC I've got. Have a Google.

    I got a huge batch of updates just like that when I told the PC to upgrade to W10. Suspicious mate.


    (using the other W7 one now, flies along nicely, must rig my KVM switch up to save all the swapping about)
