This is great news.
Perhaps I will finally install it in a virtual machine on this notebook. It came with Windows 8, but after a two week struggle with new UI I have upgraded it to Mint Linux.
Looks like I will finally be able to make use of the Windows license I have been forced to pay for.

Advertisement in a start menu, in the form of "suggested apps" is not such a good news, I am afraid.

At the moment it is only in the "Insider" version of Windows 10.
