    Anyone upgraded to Windows 10 yet ??

    For the past few weeks, every time I booted up I've been seeing a 'Windows' icon in my task bar and a message asking if I want to upgrade to Windows 10. I haven't heard anything bad about it so a couple of days ago I clicked the icon. I was surprised to find that it didn't upgrade me - instead, it simply added me to a queue and told me I'll get notified by email when my upgrade is ready. Apparently, this can take a few days - or even a few weeks.

    Next Monday is a public holiday here in the UK. So this (three day) weekend would have been a great time for me to upgrade. I then came across this web site which gives details about why I'm being held in the queue. It seems as if (over some unspecified period) Windows 10 will get downloaded to my PC in the background.

    But at the bottom of that page, there's a link saying Buy Now (Upgrade for free). Has anyone tried it? Or is there any other way to "upgrade now" (without having to possibly wait for several weeks) ?
