work flawlessly on devices already powered by Windows 7 and Windows 8.1, as Microsoft struggled to keep system requirements unchanged to make sure that everything runs smoothly.
It amazes me that Windows 10 installs perfectly fine on older inexpensive PC's and laptops; however, it will not install "flawlessly" on 2 to 3 year old Alienware machines. To install, the user has to babysit the machine and perform hard restarts of the computer before Windows can soft boot during install.
To say the least, I am extremely disappointed in MS and Dell/Alienware. From what I have read, Dell/Alienware could release a simple BIOS update to combat the issue, but they refuse to do so.
I am running Windows 10, but I wonder how much better it would run if Microsoft and Dell would fix these boot issues.
The MPAA and RIAA feel that file sharing is bad and it is causing them to lose money. I find it hard to beleive that money that never would have been received could be lost.
I have not purchased a CD or been to see a movie in at least 10 years. I have a wife and three kids and to take them to the show will cost me at least 75 to 80 dollars.
The Industries are claiming losses that are bogus. I still do not go to movies and I sure as hell do not buy CD's so that I can hear the one song I like. I use iTunes and I rent DVD's.
The occasional downloader of a movie of extremely poor quality cannot be detrimental to the industry. Box offices are taking in more money now than they ever have...how can downloading a pre-release movie be harmful.
These are just my thoughts. Greed is a dangerous thing and the MPAA and RIAA need to realize that.
