Anyone know?

Is the Windows 10 FREE upgrade thing my computer keeps displaying real? What's the catch?

It's Stasi via user license, once on your computer it's like a virus - hard to get it gone again -, and it semss, by the rumors one can hear, it's technically still half-baked just like every other new operation system Microsoft put on the market in their hinstory. Including they still test which things they can all make gone from the previous way that their systems worked like (e. g. thoughts about getting the control panel gone and let it be accessible through an app).

Eep. So basically it's a Microsoft product. Thanks!  I think I'll just continue to ignore that popup.
