>Windows 10 is very well polished

Well, aside from Windows Defender steadfastly turning itself off because it thinks I have a different AV package installed (I don't) and "helpfully" redirecting me to uninstall the offending software first. Only there is no other AV package to uninstall.

I have so far been absolutely unable to find any sort of resolution to this issue, short of a full reinstall.

The userland / GUI in Win10 still has issues.

But the kernel and system side are miles above ME. We're talking about a time when you could turn a system on, sit there and watch it for a couple hours without touching anything, and it would crash itself.

Oh yeah, no argument about that at all. The NT-based kernel is good stuff, especially compared to the Win9x hackjob in ME.
