    I'm going to see if I can get my hands on a copy and spin up a VM and give it a shot before I upgrade my main OS.

    Give me a few days :)

    All testing so far points to it working just fine. We are just old enough where the game requires so little that it will run well. Newer clients, Sallos, UOS, etc could possibly have problems.

    We should be doing some staff testing here soon to see if there are any problems as well. Please report any issues that you guys find.

    I was about to update when I read a quick blurb about the wifi auto-connecting to people (Facebook friends or Outlook contacts who bring a W10 device into your home). Probably not a problem except for my neighbors. Haven't really looked into that yet...maybe it doesn't default to ON or is easy to get around.

    It does default to on. When I get home I'll put a link on how to turn off. It is easy
