It's like if Trek films just jumped from four to six because everyone knows odd numbered Trek films (with a possible exception for three) suck. Everyone knows that every other Windows incarnation is sub-par shit rushed to market, so why not skip a version and make a WindowsX a la Apple's OSX? Microsoft... Ugh. Here's to trying to stay relevant! *doesn't raise glass* *crashes glass into forehead*

But most of the praised Windows seem to have been odd numbered ones.

Yes, it's opposite for Windows releases. I was hoping you could figure that out for yourself.

So does this mean Windows 10 now has the possibility of being shit?
Because the whole odd/even thing I always denounce as coincidence and maybe a little superstitious.

I really don't know. If they jump a version, then I don't know how that works. Here.

The good news is this was/is the Day Microshit unveiled Windows 10 and the running joke of course is that Why Windows 10? Because 7 8 (ate) 9.
I have friends from Qualcomm who attended the MS show today and they confirmed that the START Menu is BACK. And that this time 10 is designed to please Win 7 users instead of driving them mad for them who converted to 8 AND Then were so angry MS shifted gears to start a way to save something they could get no one to buy - Much like Vista. 8.1 may not have a Start menu but its 10,000% better then 8.0
I am on the list for the OCT developers release of Win 10 but doubt I will get client approval so I probably will have to wait just like everyone else. Buildings almost within running distance from where I live have many buildings spread out all over Mira Mesa with Win 10 running but mostly on cell phones and tablets and other hand held things. I can get my hands on those and bring them home but alas cannot connect to WiFi or net without multiple permissions.
MS show today says 10 will be available to pubic later in 2015 and only 2 months ago said the new O/S wood be early 2015 Sooooooo
This is bad news for me because I may not be able to use 8.1 in a very few days!!! Will have to grab Desktop and get IT dept to install Win7 on it which is more then OK with me

I saw it availible this morning with my MSDN subscribtion... downloaded, install went smooth, Visual Studio 2013 Works nice, I can deploy and debug applications on my WP device... so far so good. We'll see how fast I'll go back to Windows 8, I like the tech preview actually...

It feels like I've been in a coma for 4 years and now Windows 10 is coming out.
