Does anyone know if the ram required to run 10 will be less than 8? I know vista required more ram than 7.


If I'm not mistaken it requires the same amount of RAM , either 1GB for a 32-bit chip or 2GB for a 64-bit chip.

Wondering about this as well. I've heard different stories about this. Seems a lot of ppl are confused.

When reserving the upgrade, there's an asterik which says this:

Is it better than Windows 7? I hardly doubt it...considering my laptop does not have a touchscreen...



Hmm, pie.

Do you have to reserve a copy for it to be a free upg?


I think you can still upgrade even if you haven't reserved a copy. Microsoft still hasn't cleared this up though:

"Microsoft hasn’t yet explained any details about how, when, or if the company will start charging for Windows, however it seems likely that you’ll still have a chance to get the free upgrade if you don’t reserve it now."

 

Is the Upgrade really free?

Yes, it’s free. This is a full version of Windows, not a trial or introductory version. It is available for a limited time:  you have one year from the time Windows 10 is available to take advantage of this offer.

Thats on their official Windows 10 FAQ

I'm retarded, where is this option in Windows 7?

Should be in the toolbar, click on the icon encircled by the green cicle in this picture ( Hope it's at least visible in the picture )

Weird I don't have that icon.

July 29th on PC so a couple months yet. 

Thanks for flagging this up. Didn't realise you had to reserve and seems like I'm not the only one either, fortunately! Will reserve when I get home.

1 Year so you've got a long time to make up your mind

 

Edit: I'm too slow.
