Given that many (all?) of us are into old technology that works well I'm baffled at the desire to mess around with the latest and buggiest technology out there.

I have a lot of computers, many still running WinXP, I'm of the mind to let Windows 10 get debugged by everyone else and waiting until I have to install it. While I can enjoy beta-testing a calculator I want a computer I can count on and that works with all the "stuff" I have plugged into it.

Usually I see the interest in exploring many of the same things that other people here find interesting, but in this case I fell exactly the opposite. What am I missing out on?

For some younger generations, old technologies might as well be a discovery just like windows 10.
As I'm getting close to half a century, I'm less attracted into new things especially since I haven't recently seen dramatic breakthrough but when my musical equipment was blasted a couple of years ago and I had to fund new equipments, I have to confess I was impressed how things were easier now.
For the rest you're right, windows 10 is far too fresh but I might consider it one day.
This thread could also evolve toward a discussion about compatibility of all existing PC software's, such as development kits, emulators etc...
