Windows 10 upgrade installing automatically on some Windows 7, 8 systems

People bitched about the new start menu because they weren't willing to see that there were better ways to find their programs.

I really hate seeing this "blame the victim" mentality.

People here on Hackers News might be prepared to seek and deploy alternative start menus, but for many, perhaps most, non-technical users, it's a difficult and scary prospect.

So what are you saying? No company should improve its UI?

To be clear, Microsoft thought they were improving the start menu (the point-and-click, non-search usage of it) as well. It may be better, for all I know. But starting with Windows 8, I just totally stopped using it, so I can't weigh in on that.

Windows also comes with a tutorial at the beginning that explains the new UI.
