I've been using various Windows since 1991, training, installing, networks etc for years as the day job.
Using UNIX since 1988, Linux since 1998.
Changed over completely to Linux in 2016.
Also used to do Windows programming till 2007 when I switched to cross platform programming.
I do not find Windows 10 to be less compatible. Everything I was running on Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 works on Windows 10. As for Windows 10 being 30% less productive, again rubbish. More downtime? I've never had any downtime due to Windows 10.

Windows 10 still supports 32-bit programs meaning you can run ADE 2.0.1 without the fiddling with Wine. OS X needs a 64-bit programs and that means a later version of ADE with the new DRM. You can install all the programs easily that you need to download and remove the DRM from ePub and KF8/Mobi eBooks. It's actually very easy. It easiest to do this with Windows 10.

Anyway, unless you can prove these things on any of my computers, then I'm going to poo-poo them as they don't happen here.
