[dba-Tech] The likes of which I've never seen before

Hi Jim

I'm not so sure - and exactly "the hundreds of desktops" prohibits that.

As most of our clients operate with advertising and TV and movie production, we see a lot of Macs, but when I think about it, I have never met a Linux workstation since we started business - in 1993.

Hi All:

I thought the future was Linux? ;-)

Linux has around a hundreds of desktops and it runs on and in everything.

Hi John

Don't blame me. I didn't ask for the reinvention of the Start Menu. It was people like you who did.

The Start Screen of Windows 8 was great. You had both the larger tiles for frequently used applications and the other pane with the small tiles for everything installed.

That said, you must meet any new system with a positive attitude. If not, you can make anything to fall behind.

So, not a fan of the new Start Mess, I have decided to adopt for Windows 10. In any other way, it works absolutely great, it runs an all our home and office machines now, and for every machine to the better - from my ten years old HP Pavilion, my two ThinkStations, two Fujitsu desktops, the Surface Pro 2, to our two new Lenovo Yoga 2-1051 (amazing Atom-powered machines, by the way). It is the future, and looking back serves no purpose.
