Re: A heads up for those installing Windows 10

[Jeff Crosby <jlcrosby@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I read the experience.  Glad you went first.  :)

I too have an old laptop that I figured at some point would be my guinea
pig for Windows 10.  We have a Meraki router at work (owned by Cisco).  The
VPN set up for that does not require the Cisco VPN client, so I wonder if
I'd be OK?

Since I have no pressing need I think I'll just wait.  Had enough
excitement for this week at home last night by discovering my home desktop
with "Bootmgr missing" displayed.  After about an hour dinking around, I
reseated the SATA cables on the motherboard and all was well.  Immediately
refreshed my system image.  :)
