The latest news is that SysAdmins are complaining that even after MS told them they would control if/when all their Enterprise installations upgraded their networks are being slowed to a crawl by automatic downloads of the Win10 upgrade files. Apparently all the pre-install files come to some 2 or 3 gigabytes for each and every machine. When these are being pushed by MS to a LAN of 100+ workstations, even the fastest network is brought to a standstill for anything else. -- Veni, vidi, snarki.
