BTW, his rabbit is very well behaved. I've never experienced a tame rabbit like that. It is a female and he had it "fixed" which also increases the rabbit's life-span greatly.
His girlfriend has two guinea pigs (also from petland) and they are very well behaved and happy and very tame.
That all said. My son was bit one time by his rabbit. He was using a shedding glove on the rabbit and it thought it was a monster so it bit. After that nothing else ever.
His girlfriend was bit by the one guinea pig one time but that's because she was trimming it's nails and it was young. After that, all good behavior.
Good luck.

Be careful! Get a bit of a background history on the rabbit lest you find out it's got a poor disposition.[^]

Has the rabbit got that much stuff that needs moved with them?
I'd get 3 bids from reputable moving companies first then negotiate!

Yeah, Metro UI sucks donkey spheres.
The whole "Settings" app is clumsier, harder to use, and less friendly than "Control Panel" was - and it misses out many features.
It probably works on a phone. Sort of. If you were one of the ten people worldwide who bought a Windows Phone, that is.

Those are two very good points.
But then :
1. who buys it? I got it free... didn't we all?
2. I'm older than Office.

The "consistency" thing that was so touted to save money has long been abandoned by marketing.

Software piracy is a different animal.
Most of the "I got mine free" is due to the package being pre-installed when the machine is purchased. Many companies order their Win 10 machines with Office pre-installed by the vendor at the request of the purchaser.

Without piracy, MS would not have been a success.

I can't fathom the concept of people buying it because it looks different. I think they might have more sales if they provided the option to look like it used on W7 and XP. Their GUIs have been steadily getting worse since then. I have not talked to anyone who prefers the appearance of W10 to any older ones.
For me personally, there is not a single compelling reason for me to use W10. Not a single one. That is, other than in some cases I have no other options. If I did I certainly would not be using it. Thankfully, my development boxes at work still use W7 and I have zero interest in moving any of them from it. We do not install ANY new systems using W10 and that is going to continue for the foreseeable future.

Our machines don't see any public networks so security is not a major concern. We can't even access the internet with them and that's just as well.

Over the years I have more than once asked myself if I should move to Linux rather than bearing MicroSoft moving my cheese over and over again. But always I decided that ultimately it wasn't worth the effort.
Since Windows 8 I'm closer to making that decision than ever. I am still using Windows 7 for as long as I can on as many machines as I can. But if I'm forced to move away from W7, it's more than likely that I will not move to any Windows version any more.

Cheese moving is a problem on Linux too. viz: sys5->systemd, lilo->grub, ifconfig/netstat/route -> ip and so on.
Speaking as a mostly Linux user and developer, Win10 is an itty-bitty incremental improvement over Win7, which in itself was a mostly significant improvement over XP, but Win8 was a definite retrograde step. But then I never use Metro. And Vista - never got the chance to use it .
