Windows 10 is here – the update to Microsoft’s flagship software is becoming available to users in around 190 countries across the world. There’s a shiny new advert to mark the launch already popping up on TV and elsewhere.
The early updaters were also quick to take to social media to display a range of emotions over the launch: from joy to impatience, frustration and even a complete lack of interest.

#Windows10 is taking forever to download. I wish I did the download in the morning, not in the middle of the night.

All done. That was painless #Windows10 pic.twitter.com/QegdPhFYLQ

And it wouldn’t be a tech event without the jokey sci-fi references to humanity eventually being enslaved by our computers…
Should I be concerned that my #Windows10 update just flashed "Genisys install complete – SkyNet online"?

When the robots do become self-aware remember, we brought this upon ourselves.
