jones_supa writes: Two weeks in, and already a million people have tried out Windows 10 Technical Preview, reports Microsoft, along with a nice stack of other stats and feedback. Only 36% of installations are occurring inside a virtual machine. 68% of Windows 10 Technical Preview users are launching more than seven apps per day, with somewhere around 25% of testers using Windows 10 as their daily driver (26 app launches or more per day). With the help of Windows 10's built-in feedback tool, thousands of testers have made it very clear that Microsoft's new OS still has lots of irksome bugs and misses many much-needed features. ExtremeTech has posted an interesting list of the most popular gripes received, them mostly being various GUI endurances. What has your experience been with the Technical Preview?

You are aware that you are talking about the UI right, not the OS?
It always baffles me that people look at a new OS and complain about the UI but not about what the OS actually does. The UI changes are ancillary, the thing that makes the UI run, *that*'s what's new.
But hey, we'll do that for Linux only where we always separate the Kernel from the rest...
