Sure sure. I meant Windows Ten. Windows 9.5 1\/2? Whatever it is or will be, it&#8217;s my understanding that it&#8217;s the last.

It&#8217;s still in beta, but I can see the improvements in the past few months. It&#8217;s becoming more professional looking than Windows 8. The start menu is back &#8211; mostly. Cortana is here to stay. Think Apple&#8217;s Siri. And Windows Apps can now be put into windows on the desktop and added to the taskbar as shortcuts. I definitely like it. And it might even be free for the first year for Windows 7 and 8 users.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft has been around a while, but they haven&#8217;t lost their touch. There have been times &#8211; even periods of times when they were deeply questioned. However, I have high hopes for Windows 10. Microsoft seems to be listening. I&#8217;m kinda glad they&#8217;re not the biggest kid on the block &#8211; that&#8217;s Apple, by the dollar.<\/p>\n<p>We hope to see the &#8220;final&#8221; release by mid-summer. But, since feature updates will be come the norm, it won&#8217;t be released with all it&#8217;s promises fulfilled &#8211; but some time afterward. That&#8217;s ok. I can wait.
