Here’s something quite interesting you may have spotted today if you use Microsoft windows. In the bottom right corner of your screen, you should see a new little Windows icon. Click this and you’ll be able to reserve your free copy of Windows 10 as soon as it’s released.<\/p>\n

\"Windows<\/a><\/p>\n

We can only agree that it’s a great idea for Microsoft to be offering free upgrades to its operating systems. With lots of compatibility issues between all the older versions of windows, it can be a minefield for developers and users alike unsure if their software will work with their copy of Windows. Now with Microsoft putting huge swathes of people on the path to using the same version of their operating system, no matter how old their PC is, we can all look forward to being able to use the same software, trouble free.<\/p>\n

This all won’t happen overnight as lots of people will take time to upgrade, but it’s a great start to provide a smoother user experience for all windows users.<\/p>\n

You can read more on Microsoft’s website, here:
