          I just want the exact same UI as Windows 7, but with the under the hood upgrades, such as DX12.

              I found this pretty thorough article:
              http://www.laptopmag.com/articles/make-windows-10-like-windows-7

              Now I just need someone to make all those steps into a script I can just run 🙂

                @Nic looks awesome! Not sure I have enough... ducks to give to do it all though I like the no lock screen one for home use.

                  Reminds me - how does Microsoft count to 10?

                  Dos, 3.1, 95, 98, 98se, NT, ME, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10

                  That's not the progression. We go through that every time that numbering comes up.

                  DOS went up in normal numbers from 1.0 to 8.0 or something like that. It never jumped around or had names.

                  Windows went from 1.0 - 3.11 numerically. Then went to "years" 95, 95 ORR2, 98, 98 SE, ME (ME being a reference to 2000.)

                  Windows NT started from 3.1 and went up numerically with brand names applied to each minor release, but the numbers remaining very consistent.

                    It's not bad. Nothing really ground breaking about it. Incremental improvement over 8.1.

                      I believe it was Cisco that left the laptop unlocked at spiceworld and got set to the gandolf loop thing.

                      Yup, that was Cisco.

                          That would be called Linux.

                            It's a strained joke since it includes three different products mixed together and using a mix of their versions mixed with product names. 🙂

                            That the name Windows 7 applies to Windows NT 6.1 is where the really confusing bits happen. Right when people expected Windows NT 7 to release, Windows 7 was the name of Windows NT 6.1. Argh.
