That's really soon, which fills me with dread. The UI as seen in the most recent pre-release builds is atrocious and it seems to be getting worse, not better, with each build.

Just look at these icons: http://www.neowin.net/news/windows-10-10036-83-updated-icons...

Perhaps they're pulling another 'Watercolor' (the pre-release decoy Windows XP theme that was replaced by Luna at the last minute), but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Luckily at least the start menu should be fixed before RTM, as far as I know.
Fixed relative to what's in build 10036, undoubtedly, but I'm struggling to see how it will end up being an improvement over the Windows Vista/7-era version as far as desktop users are concerned. That said, it is an improvement over the Windows 8/8.1 Start Screen.
And that is all most users really care about.
