Don’t believe the hype. My laptop has been driving me consistently insane since I updated. The main source of apocalyptic irritation is the fact that it seems to wake itself up whenever it wants (mainly during the night so it wakes me up) even though I’ve specifically told it not to. Then my mouse also wakes it up even though I’ve told it not to. I know that I could just switch the mouse off but I don’t want to keep flipping the switch.
The update system is diabolical too. It either arranges it at a time that it thinks you will like (usually the least convenient time possible) or it lets you set it manually. The second one sounds perfectly ok except it doesn’t work. I remember setting an update to 16:30 five days from when the message came up, it ended up switching on at 04:30 that same night Then just in the past 2 days I’ve sent my laptop to sleep to get some food, I come back a couple of hours later and it’s awake.
