From what I heard/read, Microsoft could not make a decent browser anymore based on the old framework of IE, Edge allowed them to do something totally different, with a different model. Hopefully, the browser continues to do well. I also hope that Windows 10 does well, both for us the consumer/user, and for Microsoft, as a company.

I, personally, want to see Apple get its arse kicked and force it to go back to focussing on quality and user experience.
I love Apple products. Or I did. If Windows 10 makes Apple sit up and actually properly updates iOS, and makes MacOS stable, and hires some devs who understand networking and multithreading, then we have two really good systems that will compete and innovate and keep each other honest.

Yeah, I'm loving Windows 10, and Edge when I use it now and again.

You mean, like in Chrome, there is only one bar - honest question, I have never seen Edge ?
I have never understood why the navigation bar and the search bar should be different. I cannot report one single occurrence in which having only one bar was a trouble since ever they came up with teh feature in Chrome (that means several years ago). I even installed the FF add-on Omnibar at work (we're compelled to Firefox) to get the feature as well there.

The one problem I have with the Omnibox is that it leaks information.
It leaks info about previously visited sites - this would be acceptable if I was typing in an address, but when I'm doing a search it really isn't on. Info leaks into a Incognito mode session, though I doubt it leaks back out.
I like the feature, but was left red-faced by it just last week.

But this is also the case for the separate navigation and search bar, ain't it ?

No really, no.
When the bars are separate, I can type something into the search-bar without it betraying my previous browsing history.
When they are the same input element, one opens oneself up to failures like I did last week.

Hmmmm. 
Since the lounge has the KSS rule, I wont go into much detail.
I enjoy many things unconventional - be they movies/music, women or lifestyle choices. The pursuit of said interests takes me to many less-travelled places in the world - both physical and virtual. Of relevance in this instance, is my interest in women that are similarly broad-minded and are happy to eschew some of mainstream society's conventions with regards to personal grooming.
So anyway, I was searching for a datasheet for a 1/2 wave rectifier with a fella I do some work for. Not thinking, I started to type in "half wave rectifier" - it would have been fine if only I'd used numerals instead of words, or typed the third letter a bit faster.
Oh well, can't lose 'em all!

Edge doesn't support extensions yet, HTE can anyone use a browser without a content blocker to filter all the elephant droppings out
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Cool. Did you do an "in place upgrade" or a "new install"? If an upgrade, how'd it go? Did you have VStudio installed and did it survive the upgrade? Any other notable apps and their survival rate?
