Re: Windows 10 upgrade

[Bill Troop billtroop@xxxxxxxx]

Thanks, I will try it. Who knows, maybe the bug that has crept in, making
Eudora a little tricky though not impossible to use (as of six months
ago, you can't drag messages from one mailbox to another, for example),
will have been fixed. I really love the stability of the current Win 8.1
builds. For the first time in my entire Windows experience, suspend works
reliably, day after day after day, and I can't remember the last crash.
By contrast, my two Win 7 laptops, one 32, one 64, are not very
satisfactory.

so well (it really is a superior system to 7 I

isn't hard to navigate around either) that I'm afraid to monkey with it.
My only issue with recent builds of 8.1 is that some inconveniences have
shown up with Eudora, nothing fatal, but annoying.

The only application that needed a tweak was VMWare Player, on my former
Windows 7 Dell desktop, which I use to run a Windows 95-era homebrewing
application.  I installed the most recent version of VMWare and all
worked well.  I am mostly a lurker on this forum, a NotaBene user
who likes to keep up with the often interesting conversations here
regarding NotaBene's brilliant ancestor.

Bill,


I am encouraged by your post regarding the smoothness of the upgrade

to W10. One more question: did you have to re-install any of the

applications or tweak them (e.g. our beloved word processor)?
