I always wait for the first SP before switching to a new Windows OS. It will be nice if that's not necessary this time but I've been burned too many times by installing a new OS as soon as it hits (I'm looking at you, Vista... and XP... and ME... and 98).

Everything I've read indicates that Windows 10 is ready enough to be a daily driver, but as you said, I've done enough OS installs to take some precautions. In this case, I'll just clone to a spare HDD. If this were just a gaming/entertainment PC, I'd be less cautious. But my PC is an everything (gaming, entertainment, work, home server) PC.

Meh. Vista and ME were terrible after the SP - never recovered for me.

Conversely, 98 and XP were money with me, period - albeit, I agree that 98 SP1 was a big improvement.
