Good topic, I'll be watching with interest. I'm not upgrading until it's been in use by the general population for awhile (I do hate windows 8).

I just checked the Surface forum over on Microsoft's Community Boards.

Already seeing reports of WiFi connectivity issues. Barbara Bowman reports that Microsoft is investigating and suggests holding off on updating.

I...myself...like W8.1. I never used W7 so the only things I can compare it to are Windows XP and Windows Me. W8.1 works well with my Microsoft Surface Pro 3.

Windows 8.1 is a great tablet/touch screen OS, unlike 7 which installed on a tablet was pretty worthless without a keyboard.
However I like to still operate in a mouse environment so I have stardock's start 8 program installed on all my win 8.1 devices...win 10 makes that app unnecessary.

Just read that the problem is with machines with Cisco VPN Client installed.

Good find Bill!

I bit and upgraded my SP3. Took less than an hour. So far...So good.

Not much new for reviews that I can find. Evidently not too many here have tried it yet.

With the 1 year time frame, there isn't a need to download it right away. iOS 8.0.1 drove home the reason not to download a new OS as soon as it is available. help

The only issue I have (so far) is that Edge currently does not allow for the use of Extensions.

I have read that it will later...as an update.

However, IE 11 is still available.

One thing that I REALLY like about Edge is "Reading-Mode". All the banners and ad's disappear and you read just the text of the page.
