Win10 Makeover

It looks like Microsoft is doing a makeover for Windows 10 and users might see small changes in the upcoming updates to modernize the current design and icons of the native Windows OS. I just hope they do not over do it because we all know what happen when Windows 8 came out.

Mobile Data instead of Internet

It looks like more user's are adapting to mobile data instead of getting plans with internet service providers. With the recent work at home rules that were adapted by many companies, users had no choice to adapt instead of using their unreliable internet service. 
So it make sense for users to drop their internet service instead and use their mobile connections for internet. There are drawbacks but in the long run, it's a service still worth the costs.
