so i finally am on windows 10. my computer kept asking me and i kept refusing, but then it went to a countdown and before i had a chance to stop it, it was updating, and i couldn't use my laptop for the full 1000 year reign of jesus christ.. when i finally could use it, i had a problem opening chrome with all my favourite apps or pages stored.

sometimes i have to open edge for for chrome to open.

but i have had a little go a edge.. edge has a different search engine to google, anyone know what it is?

You have bough a £9000 Fiesta when you could have had an Audi S4 for the same price.

There might not be a difference using outlook 2013, try using something like Adobe CS, there is a HUGE difference. Some CS apps take 2 minutes to open on a regular HD, and working of large documents i.e. InDesign literally causes constant pauses for 15-20 seconds any time you try and do *anything*.

This is on a Mac BTW, haven't used a PC in a long, long time.

re: the 20x thing, I have many apps that took 40 seconds + to boot on a 7200rpm HD that open in a couple of seconds on an SSD.

Also that £35 is for absolutely nothing. You don't need to "set up" a computer beyond type in your name when you turn it on for the first time!

You're friend has given you some rubbish advise I am afraid - the SSD one will be around 10-20 times faster. I would strongly advise you to take it back and exchange it. It is THAT much better.

Over time your non-SSD drive will become "fragmented", this means it will get slower and slower, in a few years it will be so slow you will assume you need a new computer. You can keep the same speed from day 1 with an SSD.

Macs also work out cheaper overall, I have a 2008 MacBook Pro that is as quick as the day I got it and never had a problem, runs on the latest software too. My workhorse Mac Pro machine at work that gets 40-60 use a week is 9 years old, and again, as good as the day I bought it.

Both have been upgraded to SSDs, by the way, which made them 10-20 times faster.

Google is pretty shitty when it comes to privacy too... go Firefox or Chromium if you are concerned about that

What Anders Andersen is not correct about Edge.

Edge is pretty much, pragmatically speaking, standards compliant, s/he is confusing Edge with Internet Explorer - which was not standards compliant and was a giant mess to develop for.
