    If it hasn't arrive by the weekend, Don't Come Moaning, :)
    Move along, nothing to see.
  • Upgraded my mostly unused netbook, running W7 Starter. This was really slow hence was rather neglected.
    So far so good tis much more responsive on 10. Haven't had a proper play yet but I like.
    will wait a bit before upgrading the main laptop though.
