Windows 10 Preview Hit the Market Hard

Yes, you have heard it right. Windows 10 is out with its first look, basically the preview, which has received a warm welcome. No we don’t know how much it costs nor we have a clue about when will it be actually available for sale. But the technical preview is out and one thing that has attracted millions around the globe is its productivity.

Joe Belfiore, Redmond-based tech giant, have however refused to make any comments on the technical preview stating that it’s too early for conclusions of any kind. He added that those major features that have already being announced are not a part of the preview and hence leave enough scope for rough spots.

Turning towards the statistics he added, on the company’s blog post, that 36% of the technical preview users moved in by installing the operating system on the virtual machines while rest 64% went a step ahead and installed it on actual PCs.  

This figure hence confirms that the feedbacks and customer reviews are actually based on actual usage and not just few minutes of test and trials.


There were many onlookers who were expecting changes in Explorer or in the C-Panel along with Store Apps. However, it is to be noted that technical preview is all about core features to enable Microsoft established a confidence in its users that it can manage to bring in balance the touch, mouse and the keyword without any major glitches.
