I've read that some people delay installing Windows updates because they prefer to wait until any bugs are worked out. That seems logical to me, but I ask: isn't it preferable to install the update immediately in order to get the latest security updates?
When I try to open my iCloud calendar I get the attached error message. iCloud for W11 is working OK and I can see everything there. I rebooted to no avail. Opinions?
Seems to be several opinions on this as I Google, so thought to ask you all here as well for your thoughts.

So why is it that Microsoft in their wisdom give FREE updates to Windows 10, but you still have to pay over $100 for a Windows 8.1 Pro pack update...
Am I missing something or what?
Look forward to peoples thoughts etc
In this thread I ask what you guys think of Windows 10 so far. You do not have to answer all these.
Do you like or hate hate it? Do you think it will succeed or fail?
Sure the Start Menu is back, but do you hate that there are still metro tiles there?

I don't care if you call it windows-8.2, windows-9, or windows-10.
Decide.... and move on. ALL the software people need to know is what OS they are trying to write drivers for.
The 10 version sounds good. Please make it as good as it sounfs...!
Okay so people hate Windows Vista and Windows 8. But I want to know which is actually better. Windows 8 and 8.1 is hated because of the Start Screen. But people hate Windows Vista because it was totally unstable and It was full of bugs. It also had some compatibility issues.
I can't help but believe that Microsoft took WEI (Windows Experience Index) out of Windows to appease to brick & mortar stores like 'BB' that couldn't fool their customers anymore when they tried to sell inferior quality PC's as though they were of better quality.
What do you think?

So in the modern day there is much greater support for 64bit computing in all ways from gaming to average home use obviously in the past 64bit has been rather unstable for things like gaming due to the 32-64 difference but these days most new hardware is fully compatible with both so it just...
I'm running Win 7 HP 32 bit.
The Guys on the BSOD forum have isolated my external Freeagent Pro as the cause of BSOD's. MS Win 7 compatibility says it works ok with Win7. Seagate say is doesn't.
Forum opinions on the subject are divided. It either works for you or it doesn't.
Mine does...
