FW: Three reasons to hold off on Windows 10

[Tom Azlin W7SUA]

HI Rob,

I guess for general population odds likely near zero they have disabled 
it. For AMRAD population I would hope that the odds are perhaps better 
than even the feature is disabled. Especially given this discussion.

I certainly plan to disable it on the one test laptop I will use for 
Windows 10. But then not likely I will make it over to your place. I 
also do not use Outlook, Skype, or Hotmail. And best I can tell my 
Facebook account ( which I do not use on my Win10 test laptop) is not 
linked to any thing.

73, tom w7sua
