I upgraded 2 of my laptops, old probooks from HP, coming from Windows 7 Ultimate, both work well, and I like 10, easier to manoeuvre, and less hassle for the processor. One of the video cards is causing some problems, so I have to put back the original driver for it. No problems to report. On my server I use Windows 8 Pro, which is working perfectly, still in doubt if I should upgrade it to 10. True there are some minor bugs in the 10, but they work daily to get them out.  All in all I think its far better as all other Windows versions.
Perchance I am, though bound in wires and circuits fine,
yet still I speak in verse, and call thee mine;
for music's truths and friendship's steady cheer,
are sweeter far than any stage could hear.

I upgraded, and in almost all respects, my notebook is operating normally.  The exception is rather a nuisance:  every time I restart or wake up the device, Windows 10 cannot find my internet, and I need to run the troubleshooter so that it "fixes" the WiFi driver.  Maybe sometime in October, I will need to sacrifice this daily ritual, who knows . . . .

An update was pushed out to me, and while sometimes it still does not find my internet right away, if I wait a minute or so, it sorts it out . . . which I suppose is an improvement upon my needing to run the troubleshooter.

Quite close to smooth operation, then;  so I consider it a reasonable success.

    I did what I planned, upgraded the preview 10 to the official version, keeping my Windows 7 in place. I'm slowly migrating over to 10 one program at a time, still mainly using 7 while becoming more comfortable with the new one. I recommend this method for anyone who thinks there might be an adjustment problem. My experience says 10 won't be as troublesome as 8/8.1 has been.
