I've been looking at articles and impressions here and there for the past few days, trying to decide, and honestly it seems to me like a big improvement over 8.
My main problem with 8 when I'd get roped into helping people with their computer troubles was how difficult it was to navigate with the settings all over the place and the lack of a proper start menu. In 10 you have a start menu again (wow), and apparently the search function is... actually useful? Double-wow. So I'm not too sure what else I need out of it. I'm expecting bugs for a while, and I intend to fiddle with it for several days after installing to make sure it's set up just right (ex: disabling silly things like Wi-Fi Sense, automatic restarts after updates, forced automatic updates, etc.).
I'm so accustomed to just wrestling with computers to get them to do what I want that I'm having trouble seeing downsides that I won't just consider "mild and/or temporary inconveniences." Am I missing any glaring problems that won't be quickly fixed?
Also Cortana looks neat (been a while since I've ordered my computer around by voice) and I'm willing to play with it for a while, especially since it has a lot of similar features to Google Now, which I already enjoy on my phone and wouldn't mind having on my computer as well.
