    It has slightly better UI than windows 10 but at what cost? Well it takes about 8gb of RAM at all times. If you have an 8gb RAM system I’d avoid at all costs. Otherwise, maybe look at what expected workload you need and the UI vs 10. I’m thinking waiting until 12 would be just as good as getting this.
