    I had the Geek Squad come to connect my new large screen Sony Tv to my desktop computer, making it a dedicated computer monitor for video conferencing. David, the Geek Squad technician did an outstanding job in doing sound explained how to use it well.

    I was pleasantly surprised to find that Windows OS now comes on a USB stick, considering that PCs usually aren't even sold with CD drives anymore. It installed easily without a lot of software know-how required.

    You kind of have to have an OS to run your computer...Win10 is what it is. At least I haven't had to reinstall anything as of yet, which I couldn't say about Win7 as I had to wipe and reinstall a total of four times over four years due to various bugs, errors and Windows Update flaws.

    windows 10 in a box, only thing people should pay special attention to is its on a USB drive not a disc drive. So make sure you have at least one USB port available during installation.

    I picked it up and when I went to use it the box was empty, I was told somehow when somebody picked the display box, that made sense to me, got a new one, and also a gift card for my troubles. And that is why I am a fan of Best Buy

    Exactly the Apple accessory I needed, at the right price and readily available. Best buy is a convenient electronics store with all the accessories and electronics components necessary to support your devices at a reasonable price.

    After an application update - everything ended...not able to start computer, no amount of effort could get me to safe mode, nothing worked. Inserted Windows 10 and an hour later computer restored, application was updated and everything works...

    Very easy of an install. I purchased Windows to add a BootCamp partition to my new MacBook Pro. It's working perfectly, very nice to have a Windows option on an Apple machine.

    USB drive with Windows 10 home

    went to install Windows 10 home on an old (very old) motherboard. It would not install. It hung with a blinking cursor after displaying the PCI Devices list. Called Microsoft tech support and they offer a few alternatives which I has already tried without any success. MS said to contact the motherboard maker. The good news was that Ubuntu 18.04 installed properly. So it looks like the issue is the Windows 10 install software. If I had thought this might have happened I would have tried the Windows 10 install using their media maker tool first (which failed to do the install with the same problem) as it would have alerted me to the problem). That would have saved me from a $140 purchase. Oh well. Will just use this on a newer PC.

    Installed Windows 10 via USB on a 2011 Windows 7 computer, and I have not encounter any problems so far. I know there a some newer updates that are messing up the drivers of computers, so I am being cautious about this installation.

    Having the software loaded on to a thumb drive certainly makes storing and handling the "disk" much easier. Installation was a breeze and without it being on a disk you do not need to worry about having a CD drive.

    Improved over the beginning. Disc cleanup should be automatic after every update. Some of the functions could be separated and available if wanted or needed. The basic software should be included at no additional cost. Then the competition would not be competition.

    Took some getting used to --- but I like it. Just wish Microsoft kept the old Menu style which could be grouped. But it works well on my fast computer. No problems found .... yet.

    I upgraded my desktop PC. Even though I could have re-installed my windows 8.1, support would have eventually dropped off. So far so good on everything working together. Hardware, OS, and software.

    Windows 10 is still a great OS and is my favorite Windows version after using them since back in the Windows 95 days. I’ll likely be sticking with this instead of going to Windows 11.

    I was afraid it would slow down my computer, but so far my computer has been faster than before. (I should mention that I did a clean install on a new hard drive and don't yet have all of the previous programs installed.)

    It is just a Windows program, not much to say about that. But thanks for asking. I do wish we had ordered the Office version instead of the home and student version. Too much junk in the home version, I think.

    We became new Grandparents recently and because he is out of state we purchased this iPad to make more out of FaceTime. It works great and the clarity of picture is excellent. I bought it on line and picked it up the same day.
