Win10 getting more aggressive

For all of us skeptics, things are getting a little tougher.

Microsft will be moving the W10 update to an 'optional' in the normal Windows update process. They say it will happen in early 2016.

My Dell practically twisted my arm to do automatic updates, and it was set that way -- until now. The'important ones should still roll through, but not the others.

It's not like I don't trust MS -- wait, maybe it is.

For some reason MS is really trying to jam this down our throats----they're definitely up to something.

This tsunami of "cloud storage" is another thing I'm certain is more income driven than anything else. It seems to be another tether to keep things in just one corral so to speak.

While I'm sure that's quite handy for business its not something I need or want or find all that reassuring my info isn't any safer than when its home and properly backed up.
