I just upgraded an old Atom 270 powered Acer Aspire 1 netbook to
Windows 10, and it runs faster than it did on Windows 7. It boots
faster too . As long as I don't try to run more than 2 applications at
a time it is great. (can't put more than, IIRC, 2gb of RAM in it -
which is it's major limiting factor)

What bothers me more than Win10 is the blasted new extended bios
(UEFI?) that Microsoft has required all OEMs to implement before being
licenced to distribute anything from Win8.0 on.

What a pain that stupidity can be!!!!
