So far the switch over has been a success, (if you are looking at this, then it works!) and it doesn&#8217;t look like I&#8217;ve lost anything.

Do I risk installing it on my desktop or laptop? It comes on 2 DVD&#8217;s (one for x86 systems and the other for 64bit systems). I did have a copy of an early build quite some time ago (shortly after it had renamed from Longhorn to Vista), but it wasn&#8217;t that stable and made my laptop almost unusable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hmmmmmm&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After serious consideration (oh, and&nbsp;Dan&nbsp;telling me that I should do it), I&#8217;ve opted to go with &hellip; <a title=\"Better beta?\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.captains-blog.co.uk\/wp\/uncategorized\/better-beta\/\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Better beta?<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-910","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.captains-blog.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/910","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.captains-blog.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.captains-blog.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.captains-blog.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.captains-blog.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=910"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.captains-blog.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/910\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":911,"href":"https:\/\/www.captains-blog.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/910\/revisions\/911"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.captains-blog.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=910"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.captains-blog.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=910"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.captains-blog.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=910"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
