By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

Windows 10 is officially available starting today and for free to many exisiting Windows 7 and Windows 8 users in 190 countries who have opted for the update and whose hardware supports the features and capabilities that the much awaited OS offers.

Restoring a lot of the familiarity of the desktop-focused Windows 7 OS from 2009, Windows 10 does bring significant features to exisiting desktop users as well as touchscreen or 2-in-1 devices.

Many exisiting Windows users have received the option of 'reserving' their copy of Windows 10.

Microsoft is hoping to get 1 billion devices in the next 2-3 years.
