I think I'm gonna take the plunge.  I got it downloading now.

Sure, thing.  As long as Terragen and my modelling software work, I think I can grind through whatever glitches it might have at first.  But, in all honesty, I haven't felt like doing much in the way of modelling or rendering (I thinks it because I have to do the hard work, now), so I need something to tinker with until the desire to work comes back.

Just updated - some oddities - but W10 sorted them by itself.  Looks good and works well - nice clean interface, now I've to learn the ins and outs, tips and tricks!

I've done the upgrade from Win 8.1.  No issues so far from TG or anything else really.

If there an easy way to get back to the previous version, if anything wrong happens ?

And I assume you can upgrade without having to reinstall all software?

Has anyone run into this yet? I read this off of another site and it seems iffy to me.

What site?  I suppose you'll have to confirm it with the UA.

Everything has gone wellish - W10 did not recognize my graphics card at first, it needed 3 restarts. Yes you can upgrade without reinstalling - programs are called apps! The only problem I've had is that bitdefender did not work and I'm having trouble reinstalling it.  Windows does not seem to play well with third party security!

I think I'll confirm it in the EULA and if it's there, I may hold off.  Didn't PayPal attempt a similar scam by declaring itself legal owner of all its user's intellectual property?

But yes, people definitely need to read the things they sign and / or agree to and really decide if it benefits them.

Personally, I'm considering writing up my own counter offer for when people attempt to sign me up for credit cards (seriously).

Markets are set by supply and demand.  The answer - demand more! 

Run yourself like a business, best advice my mom ever gave me.

Yikes!
Are we sure  this is a MS product? Sounds like an Intelligence office or Big Brother crap.
Wonder how much Billy gets for all the collected information? And who will be the buyer?

I don't know about PalPal. I never had an issue with them in the past.
