I just got an Acer Aspire Switch 10 E. It came with Windows 8 by default. I was seriously considering upgrading to 10. I haven't really had a chance to use it at all yet, but I'll probably just turn it on and start the Win 10 upgrade right away.
Is this probably a good idea? :)

I'd look at performing a drive backup first. Then, once you have that, upgrade to 10. If you find you don't like it, you can restore 8 from the backup.
And once you've done it like that, you'll still be able to go back to 10 since your hardware has now been registered.

It didn't have any meaningful data on it since I just got it.
I went ahead and did the upgrade last night. Haven't had a chance to use it much, but it seems it works a charm!

I'm about to upgrade into the late Redstone 1 beta. It's getting near release, so I figured I didn't have too much to lose in the testing, besides maybe a tiny bit of polish.

Some damn fine additions in there. They just need to change windows update back to the old style of how it was done in all prior versions of Windows rather than the "get all updates" or "get none at all" style which I HATE. We as PC users deserve the right to run our systems the way we choose, rather than being given a streamed Xbox/PlayStation style.
Everything else I quite like.
I have Windows 10 on my laptop, but not on my main PC. Works fine on the laptop, but I just prefer how Windows 7 does things for the main PC. I prefer having more direct control over everything. That's the PC way. That new GPU monitor though. Very nice :).

There's no choice with a Kaby Lake CPU though. It's annoying move by MS and Intel. On the other hand I would be surprised if there aren't hacked windows 7 builds that could run on Kaby Lake.
Also why can't intel think of better names for architecture iterations?
