Right now:
I have installed the new Falls Creator Update on 7 pc's. 3 have failed and/or been a fist fight and days of labor to get it going. Of those 3 I had to wipe the pc and re load fresh with the ISO from Microsoft that includes the Falls Creator Update. And these 3 pc's: Dell OptiPlex, Lenovo Thinkpad and a Dell Dimension. How in the hell does this happen? There is nothing funky loaded on these machines. All 3 are 2-3 years old.
So what would make me leave Windows for the first time in 30 years? This continual crap level of stability. Oh on 1 machine I got the FCU going, Edge was total crap, froze on every web page. I found some Power Shell script to run off a Microsoft Forums page and that fixed it. What that scrip did, I have no clue. But I am totally fracking fed up with Windows. I've supported it my entire career. But after 25 years, I'm about done.
What is Microsoft's main focus on Windows 10? The new Fluent Design...making windows (notice small w) transparent when they overlay each other. Seriously.. eye candy.. how about stability!
So, what would it take me to leave? Show me an iMac that can run Office 365, OneDrive, Chrome, NOT blue screen, and updates that actually install and work!
PS. I am in contact with some 3rd level Microsoft Tech Support, they really have no clue either. Hell, I found the PowerShell script to run myself. Their answer is: Call Dell, it's gotta be a hardware issue, wipe and re load. WTF? Oh... you'll love this one... It's a partition error! Not enough space in one of the hidden partitions.... again wtf??... the God damn SSD is standard from Dell. Odd all the other major updates from Microsoft installed fine.
I already live 80% off my iPhone 8... maybe I would be better moving to a Mac for integration.
