Windows 10 Upgrade shenanigans
From what I’ve been reading, the Windows 10 Anniversary Update has been doing some … odd things to peoples computers. First is the whole thing about switching some group policies to only work on the Enterprise or Education versions, making the ‘Pro’ version less useful for businesses as those settings can’t be centrally managed anymore […]

Today is the last day of the Windows 10 free upgrade.
Interestingly, Microsoft is sticking to their original plan for the Windows 10 Upgrade and ending it today, July 28th. I find it interesting that they decided to not keep it going as they seem to really want people to upgrade, but it’ll be nice to have some of my older computers stop nagging me to […]

Windows 7 machines reportedly upgrading to Windows 10
There have been several threads on Reddit over the last few days about Windows 7, and in some instances, Windows 8.1 upgrading to Windows 10 automatically. From what people are saying, Windows will restart suddenly and the Windows 10 install will start almost immidatley. I have taken a look at my Windows 8.1 laptop and […]

The HTC Vive will reportedly cost $799
I find it funny that people were going on about how the Vive would cost so much less than the Oculus back when the price was revealed back in early January. I felt that the fact that there’ll be more hardware coming with the Vive would cause the price to be higher, and it appears […]
