wasabi2k: Yeah I am waiting for the consumer preview to come out - then going to try on my Stream 7.
Would do it on my probook - but given the abysmal support by HP for their AMD Drivers I might not.
Does Windows 10 require new WDDM versions like 8.1 did?

This - I am interested in. Let me know how you get on. I was worried the new scaling software would treat a 7" tablet more like a phone than a PC...

joker97: PS might have to take it back if some bugs pop up or lifespan of OS is suddenly terminated ... but so far so good ... IE11 even has a smiley face - and i have no idea what to do with it ...

forgot to mention
with the windows 7 it was on you need to install a software to make the special keys work. these special keys seem to work out of the box with windows 10. and for some reason the right click which wasn't working very well works fine now. (surely it can't heal physical defects?)
