gtagrl 4317 Report post Posted August 19, 2015 Got my new laptop, Windows 10 seems pretty effortless so far, certainly a better integration of everything compared to 8.1. I'm still sorting through all the settings and apps, but haven't gotten rid of Edge or Cortana completely yet...I'd like to see how it all works before choosing whether to use them or not.
