    From mybroadband

    Windows Insider participants should be able to download Windows 10 from 06:00 South African time on 29 July 2015.
    I guess, we who are not part of insider programmes, wil be 2nd in line for the update. So it's safe to assume during the course of tomorrow then

    Surprisingly few people know of Win+x. I use it almost daily! Win+x -> a FTW!

    Win+x yes, as I mentioned in my post. Win+x -> a opens up a command line instance in administrator mode. Very handy if you do dev work and need to use one of the maby CLI tools.

    (my tongue-blowing post was made in yes, you do know that?)
