Microsoft has reduced the size of Windows 10. For those who missed it, I said: “I think 32GB Flash memory drives are too small for traditional laptop uses.

I don’t know if this is a response to my little rant last week, but either way, it’s a good question. There seems to be the option of using external drive space to complete the Windows 10 upgrade, but what about updates once you’re saddled with it? Stuart My iTunes library is on an external USB, and isn’t to blame. I have next to nothing installed except absolute essentials such as Chrome, OpenOffice and iTunes.

Despite a relatively hassle-free installation, there has been an endless stream of prompts to free up space so it can update.

I’m holding up my end of the bargain, but Windows 10 most certainly isn’t. I bought a budget Acer netbook knowing I’d be forced to keep an eye on the applications I installed, and be more organised with external storage.
