Computing changed, people wanting freedom of choice, have not.What changed is computing. The desktop paradigm that Windows 7 followed is no longer the dominant computing platform. A lot of the angst over Windows 10 isn't so much about Windows 10 but normal evolutionary forces. "A desktop only OS that you can control!" sounds good in an internet forum like this. Try using that to sell an OS the general public today and good luck.
There are quite a few that do not want metro or the store or pretty much any of that crap. It takes up resources.
I use mine to game and browse. I don't need all the bloatware running in the background or anywhere. I like the old style of updates where it was a service pack like others have said. I want the OS to flow with my style and not be told my MS that this is the way it is. So people have to tweak and run 3rd party software.
I loved windows 7/vista 64. Load the OS and go. No problem.
I would pay for a windows like that. I guess the only way is to get enterprise.
